Introducing: Book Fair Takeover!
Book Fair Takeover allows your pupils to help plan, promote and run your Book Fair. Teaching them about the world of work in a safe school environment, Book Fair Takeover offers cross-curricular learning opportunities and can help pupils improve their communication skills and grow in confidence.
With tips, timelines and a comprehensive toolkit, our free resources will give your pupils the confidence and independence to run your Book Fair as a class or whole school enterprise project. Every pupil – no matter their skills or experience – can apply for jobs and practise entrepreneurial skills as they take part in planning and promoting the Book Fair as a team.
Strong links to the curriculum in the areas of Financial understanding, PSHE and Citizenship, Mathematics, English, ICT, Art and Design ensure that Book Fair Takeover is a valuable – and fun – educational experience.
Giving your pupils a personal investment in the Book Fair’s success will engage them with books and reading and can create a real buzz, involving more parents, pupils and school staff. This boost in excitement and attendance can help to earn more free books and teacher’s resources for your classrooms and libraries.
