World Book Day 2018

A day is not enough….we need a week!

We are having a week of activities and Monday started with our Big Class and Wee Class reading buddies. 

The end of every day is teacher story time.  From children’s classics, such as Treasure Island, to modern favourites, like Harry Potter.

The big class are authors and illustrators!

We have loved receiving the ‘Reading in Unusual Places’ homework photos.

Happy New Year – 2018 – Year of the Dog

As part of our Festivals and celebrations topic we investigated some of the traditions of Chinese New Year.  We discussed the similarities and differences to some of the celebrations we have in Scotland and with our families.

We enjoyed the story of Chinese New Year and why the celebrations include fire, loud noises and the colour red.
