Last week we celebrated World Book Day. World Book Day is a registered charity on a mission to give every child and young person a book of their own. It’s also a celebration of authors, illustrators, books and (most importantly) it’s a celebration of reading.

We spent our day doing a range of reading activities and throughly enjoyed it.

We took part in a quiz where we had to identify books based on a section of their front covers. Bonus points were given if we knew the author of the books.

We completed a booklet all about our favourite book in which we wrote diary entries, author interviews, summaries, character profiles, word searches and more.

We enjoyed taking part in a Where’s Wally scavenger hunt in our school corridors.

We worked in pairs and used drama skills to perform a scene from a book which the rest of the class had to guess.

Our most favourite part of the day was sharing a story with the nursery children. We visited the nursery in small groups and read a book to the nursery children. It was great!

Some of us dressed up as book characters whilst others brought in a prop or their favourite book. We got to show these off during our costume parade in the playground.

Have a look at some of the pictures from our day below. We hope your day was as fun as ours!📚📖🎉
