My BookBlog in Years 2-6

'My BB' is a fantastic online resource to encourage children to read for pleasure. Our children are supported to choose one of our brand new books at their level using the blurbs, book trailers and reviews of other children. My BB supports the children through the book, enabling them to complete blogs, quizzes and collect jokes and cards. Every child from Y2 upwards has their own password and can log on at home through the link below.

On 23rd November, teachers and head teachers from the North West, came to our school for the My BB training event. Our pupils shared their blog sites and spoke about how the website works. The pupils did an excellent job!
