Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson - 10-Day Book Immersive Teaching Framework

Bring storytelling to life with our 10-day sequence based on Room on the Broom.
This carefully structured immersion is designed to develop oracy, vocabulary, early reading, and the foundations of writing through a rich and engaging approach. Across the sequence, children are immersed in high-quality talk, building confidence to speak in full sentences, share ideas, and retell the story with increasing independence.
Through repeated exposure and meaningful experiences, children develop a strong understanding of key vocabulary, enabling them to access the text more deeply and begin to recognise patterns and language within the story—supporting early reading skills.
As their language grows, children are guided to translate talk into writing, using structured sentences and familiar story language as a foundation for mark-making and early composition.
This immersive approach ensures that children don’t just hear the story—they live it, talk it, read it, and begin to write it.
