This KS2 Rise and Read Beethoven resource includes four reading activities focused on the famous composer, Ludwig Van Beethoven. It is suitable for use in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 and could be displayed on the whiteboard as early morning work, used in reading lessons or even as a stimulus in assemblies. However you choose to use it, children will not only sharpen their reading skills but also learn more about the world around them.

The pack includes two information texts, an article and an image. These lead to questions which focus on a variety of reading skills: retrieval, purpose, vocabulary, inference and prediction. There is also an assessment-style question with a focus on sequencing events based on the text. If you're looking for cross-curricular links, you could use this as part of your music lessons or on World Music Day.

This resource does not require any printing, as it has been specially designed to be displayed on the whiteboard. Get downloading!
