World Book Day

At the start of the month 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.

We also enjoyed choosing a story to be read by another teacher in the school. 📚📖🎉
