Book Week Scotland was an enjoyable and literacy rich experience at Carolside Nursery. Throughout the week, we focused on the books within the Bookbug Bags and the children participated in a range of activities relating to the individual stories. Some of these activities included:

• Retelling the story using picture prompts
• Creating pirate themed props
• Researching various animals
• Identifying the qualities of a ‘good friend’
• Discussing adventures
• Creating masks

The children were excited to welcome Primary 6 pupils into the nursery. During their visits, the children shared stories and discussed the different characters and settings with each other. Reading in our outdoor area was particularly popular!
