Activity 2: Balloon debate Objective: To use persuasive language in a balloon debate Outcomes: A list of reasons with which to construct an argument; balloon debate in groups Resources: Scholastic Book Fair invitations, to be found in your Book Fair Kit BALLOON DEBATING: Each class member is in an imaginary hot air balloon. The balloon is losing height rapidly because it is overweight; therefore we need to get rid of some of the passengers! Children have to come up with persuasive arguments for why their chosen cover is the best in the invitation. The top arguer stays in the balloon until the very end and wins the balloon debate! Recap question: What techniques can authors and illustrators use to make their covers effective? Task 1: What other qualities do good books have? Ask children to make a list in pairs or groups. Possible answers: a good storyline; funny characters; interesting setting; famous authors. Task 2: Allocate each member of your class with one book from the invitation. Each member of the class must have a different book. Give children five minutes to think of as many reasons as possible for why it is the best book in the invitation. For younger age groups (Key Stage 1), encourage children to choose their own book based on their own reasons. Can they make a list of their reasons? Task 3: In groups, children need to complete a balloon debate. Each group member takes turn arguing why his or her book is the best in the invitation. The student who has the most reasons and who is the most persuasive can keep his/her ticket and stay in the balloon. Each group should have one Judge who oversees the debate and chooses the winner. Every student can take turns as the Judge. Can you keep hold of your balloon ticket?! 5

Activity 3: Researching the authors Objective: To use social media, websites and books to research books and authors Outcomes: An informed presentation on an author (speaking, listening and drama); completed author profiles Resources: Scholastic Book Fair invitations, to be found in your Book Fair Kit. Lead-in questions: What are your favourite books? Who is your favourite author? Which author interests you on the Book Fair invitation? Task 1: Split the class into groups and give each group a different author to research (direct students to the library or to the IT room if necessary). Task 2: Students must organise a presentation based on their findings. They need to present facts and information about their authors to their classmates. Task 3: Encourage students to listen to their classmates and make notes so that they can choose the author that interests them the most and create an author profile.

Activity 4: Celebrations Objective: To identify customs and traditions of national celebrations Outcomes: A list of customs/traditions for a national celebration; drama piece as a local committee prioritising ideas Resources: Photographs from national celebrations (Christmas across the world, Diwali, Bonfire night, the World Cup, the Commonwealth Games etc.); video of national celebration Lead-in question: Your Book Fair is a celebration of reading. Why do you think reading is important? Lead-in brainstorm: Can you think of a recent celebration in the world? What have we celebrated in the UK this year? Task 1: Show a video of celebrations around the world. What traditions do different cultures have? Possible answers: street parties; posters, flags, bunting; fancy dress; food and drink; fireworks; music; dancing; lots of people; mascots; games. Task 2: Your Book Fair is a celebration of reading. In groups, prioritise the ideas from most important to least important for this type of celebration. For younger age groups (Key Stage 1), ask children which of the following things they enjoy the most and why. STREET PARTIES POSTERS, FLAGS, BUNTING FANCY DRESS FOOD AND DRINK FIREWORKS MUSIC DANCING LOTS OF PEOPLE MASCOTS GAMES 10

11

Activity 5: Advertising the Book Fair Objective: To understand and analyse how posters appeal to their target audience Outcomes: Annotated posters; newly created posters Resources: A collection of posters or marketing material from the coverage of a national celebration. Posters in the Book Fair Kit may be used. Task 1: Split the class into groups of four or five. Each group is given a poster to annotate and analyse. The following prompt questions might be useful: 1. Who do you think the poster is aimed at? Who is the target audience? 2. Which eye-catching words helped you to identify the target audience? 3. What is the headline? How is it presented? 4. Are there any photographs or pictures that stand out? 5. Can you see any examples of alliteration? 6. Can you see any examples of where the poster tries to persuade the reader? For younger age groups (Key Stage 1), simplify these questions. Examples might include: which colours stand out?; which pictures do you like?; how many pictures can you see?; how many colours can you see? Task 2: Each group needs to present annotations to the rest of the class. Task 3: The Book Fair is an opportunity to celebrate reading. Using the ideas from the previous activities, children create a new poster for the Book Fair in their groups. Extension task: When all posters are complete, show the class the posters that have been included in your Book Fair Kit. 1. How do their posters compare? 2. Which do they prefer? 3. Where are the best places to put them around the school building? 12

ALTERNATIVE TASK: Younger age groups might prefer to design their own bunting, which can then be strung together around the school building. Use the photocopiable template below to get them started! 13

Activity 6: Creating Invitations Objective: To create personalised invitations to the Book Fair Outcomes: Newly created invitations Resources: Examples of invitations to weddings, parties, conventions etc. Lead-in question: When have you received an invitation? Make a list of events that require invitations (examples include weddings, parties, conventions etc.). Task 1: Split the class into groups of four or five. Each group is given an invitation to annotate and analyse. Can they find the crucial elements of the invitation? 1. Venue 2. Map 3. Time 4. Date 5. Reason for celebration 6. Things that must be brought to the event Task 2: Each group is given a different target audience. Working together, they need to brainstorm how they can grab the attention of their target audience and create their invitations. Possible target audiences: - Parents - Teachers - Other children - Journalists - Politicians Task 3: Each class member should use their ideas from the previous activities to create their own invitations.

TEACHERS AND CHILDREN, CONGRATULATIONS! YOU VE COMPLETED ALL OF THE PRE-EVENT ACTIVITIES! NOW, IT S TIME FOR YOUR BOOK FAIR! Post-event questions and suggestions for further activities You ve had the Book Fair and you ve completed the pre-event activities, but the fun doesn t have to end here! There are lots of ways to keep that reading spirit alive in the classroom and to keep children talking about books and reading. First off, let s start by asking students to reflect on what they ve done. Questions: 1. Why is it important to celebrate reading? 2. What are the features of a celebration? 3. What went well during your Book Fair? Was it a good celebration? List three ways in which it went well. 4. What could ve been improved about your Book Fair? List three ways in which it could ve been better. Suggestions for further activities: 1. Now that your class has created so many book covers, author profiles, posters and invitations, why not get them busy organising a classroom display? 2. If you re stuck for creative writing exercises, get students to predict the themes of their new book based on the cover and title can they write the first chapter or create a short drama of the plot? 3. Get in the mood for the next Book Fair by beginning a reading campaign to get other students across your school involved. Put photos up in the school library, or snap students and teachers reading different books around the school building. 4. To kick-start the campaign, ask your class to declare which book they ll be reading next, whether it s from the Book Fair range or not. Ask children to complete and wear the badges provided here just to make sure that reading fever keeps spreading 16
