About The Literacy Shed
The Literacy Shed is home to a wealth of visual resources that I have collected over my 10 year career as a primary school teacher. I trawl YouTube, vimeo and other sites looking for suitable resources to use in the sheds. The sheds are broadly thematic but sometimes a resource could go in 2 or more sheds, I slot it in where I think it works best.
Most of the resources can be used in KS1 and KS2 but some do lend themselves to the upper age group and above. The aim is to provide high quality resources that can be used in stand alone literacy lessons, can form the basis for a whole iteracy unit or can support literacy units that you already have in place. With the many book based activities I would advocate using the book alongside the digital resource.

Since it's launch in June 2012 Literacy Shed has gone from strength to strength with over 1.5 million page views.

I really enjoyed looking on this it gave me a lot of ideas for stories about anything such as a cloud or a place in time like ww2 and you could just go on for hours rabbiting on and on. Before you know it your a world famous writer or a poet and your signing books for kids my age who wanna be just like you. And it makes you feel good inside! I don’t just want to write for that reason but it’s mainly because I enjoy writing and so I loved looking on all the different sheds for a lot of inspiration.
