Today, we finished our rainbow book display. We drew our books after researching about them. Some of us made large books and some made small books. We made it into one big rainbow display with our chosen books of different colours and genres. In the end everybody had a range of lovely book covers.

Today we started structuring the school news paper. They were all assigned with different tasks, some of them had jobs such as creating the front cover, some made puzzles to include in the news paper. They all had great ideas and worked great in small groups. They all used word, to start to create a funny but informative news paper to keep everyone in the school updated about the latest events taking place in Kirkhill.

Today we came up with two articles in groups for the newspaper we are going to create. We came up with names for each article and one group came up with the name for the Newspaper. We thought of the best was to publish it and outline what the newspaper is for and then we shared our ideas. The name of the newspaper is The Kirkhill News.

Today we got to know the people in our group by sharing our favourite things like movies, books and songs. We also look at last year’s targets, considering what we could add to and what we could change. We worked in groups to create new aims and targets for this year.
Our aims for this year look like this. We may want to change them later on:
| Encourage reading for enjoyment across the school | Create a school a newspaper/ magazine (Digital on Seesaw) | Create opportunities to share books and pieces of writing across stages | Making literacy more inclusive |
