We have had a very busy World Book Day. This morning we went to see the library monitors who let us pick from a choice of 3 books and…. we get to keep them! After break, we joined up with Primary 2 and we got to listen to either Never Tickle a Tiger or The Dinosaur that Pooped the Princess. We then completed lots of fun tasks about these books. This afternoon, we visited Primary 7 and they read us The Hungry Caterpillar. We then worked together on a range of stations that they had created, such as colouring, a quiz and fruit tasting. We have had a wonderful day.
I liked guessing the fruit with P7. -Rachel
I thought the dinosaur story was so funny. -Arturo
I want to read my book.- Ula
Primary 3/4 have just finished their novel, Pugs of the Frozen North. We created a mind map of the key events of the story. Then we sequenced these events so that we could remember the order of the story.
Louise: “Using this list we made a map.”
Mia: “The map will help us remember what happened in the story even when we have not read the book in a few years.”
Milosz: “At the start of the lesson I didn’t know that making a map could be such fun!”
Alan: “I need to improve my handwriting.”
Dominik: “I can now explain to somebody else a summary of our story.”
