World Book Day
The children enjoyed World Book Day. In Assembly they talked about their favourite books.
In Willow class our youngest children created their favourite characters by drawing around their own body and making them life-size. They also created a reading corner in the garden and played 'Guess Who' using book characters. They enjoyed sharing books, swapping them when the bell rang.
Beech class enjoyed a story based on each lesson. They had a Maths story about fractions, for Science it was a story about flowers and plants and they listened to a David Attenborough story describing a place in English. They also made bookmarks describing how to look after a plant.
Chestnut class competed in a character related quiz. They also created their own bookmarks and wrote character profiles. Meanwhile in Oak class, they worked hard to identify characters using clues given and also participated in a book based scavenger hunt.
We recognise this event every year as reading is so important to a child’s academic development and is a life skill that is essential to a successful future.
