We have given specific examples from books we know are popular in schools, but all activities in this resource are designed to be adaptable and can be used with any book.\u000b\u000bThis resource was created by Ailie Finlay of \u0013 HYPERLINK \"http://www.flotsamandjetsam.co.uk/\" \u0014Flotsam and Jetsam\u0015, a multi-sensory storytelling and puppet company based in Scotland.\nIf you are taking part in \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://www.readingschools.scot/\" \u0014Reading Schools\u0015, the activities in this resource could support delivery of Key Area:\n1.5.1: Access to high-quality books\n2.2.1: Regular opportunities to read for pleasure\n2.2.2: Interdisciplinary book projects\nIdeas and activities\nActivity 1: Create a sensory scene\nChoose a scene from the book and create a multi-sensory scene. This could be large or small – you could use a corner of your classroom or have everything ready in a basket for a pupil to pull out and explore.\u000b\u000bFor example, if you were sharing Sharing a Shell, you could have a ‘rock pool in a basket’, containing a large piece of blue fabric, shells, pebbles, toy fish. Dried out seaweed could add smell – smells are always great to include! An ocean drum for sea sounds, or a rain stick or thunder-maker could make the weather sounds.\nActivity 2: Multi-sensory page turn surprise\nTurning a page is a visual surprise. Choose a page-turn from your book and make it a sensory surprise.\u000b\u000bLook for a book with a big impact, for example in The Koala Who Could you might choose the page where the woodpecker starts tapping the tree and use a rattle to make a woodpecker noise. Or, in Dear Zoo when you get to the page with the puppy, bring out a dog puppet to bark, snuggle or run over the children!\nActivity 3: Create a tactile version of the book\nMake some books out of stapled together card. The pupils can stick a piece of fabric or textured paper on to each page of the book to create a simplified version of the story. For example, a tactile version of Stick Man might have pages like this:\nA ‘stick’ on the cover cut out of corrugated cardboard\nA square of fur fabric for the dog\nA square of smooth silky fabric for the river\nFeathers for the swans\nA square of sandpaper for the beach\nCotton wool for the snow\nAutumn leaves for the Stick Man’s house\nOnce the book is made, you can help the pupils to re-tell a simple version of the story as they explore the pages.\nActivity 4: Story trace\nThis is a one-to-one activity that is particularly suitable for pupils who spend some of their day lying down. Prepare the activity by simplifying the story to a few sentences and becoming familiar with these so you can tell them without the help of the book. When you are ready tell the story at the same time as tracing it on the child’s hand and arm or back. \u000b\u000bThe aim here is not to be literal, but to recite the story gently with accompanying rhythmical actions. Generally, it is more relaxing for the child if your tracing is continuous, that is your hand or finger is in constant contact with the child from the beginning to the end of the story. This activity works best if it is repeated often so the child can become familiar wit","cbCaihdT2e6rogbE","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihdT2e6rogbE","docx",235795,13,"English","# About this resource\n## Ideas and activities\n## Suggested books for children with additional support needs\n## Further resources","[{\"question\":\"Who is this resource for and what is its purpose?\",\"answer\":\"It is intended for children aged 3–18 with neurodiversity, disability or additional support needs.
