Primary 1 have been having a fantastic week this week. We have been celebrating books in all sorts of ways!

We have had our primary 7 buddies come to read to us twice this week! We loved listening to their stories, and even read them some stories too.

We have each designed / coloured a bookmark, which Mrs Baty says she’s going to laminate for us to keep.

We have read lots of new books and our favourite books every day this week.

We chose our favourite class book (The Selfish Crocodile) and have been designing a display on our door. It is looking so good. Fingers crossed we win the competition on Friday.

We got together to write the first page of a whole school story. We began it by introducing Mr Zebra, who was getting ready for his own birthday party with Mr Tiger and Mrs Hippo. He wore a blue and red sparkly party hat, and his party t’shirt. But on his way to the party … he fell into a puddle! We can’t wait to hear how it ends.

Today we went with the primary 2’s, to the library. We saw a short performance about Badger The Mystical Mutt. He was a very cheeky dog!

We have also been looking at some of the amazing ‘Extreme Reading’ photos. We are so creative.

We are really looking forward to the rest of the week. Tomorrow we are going to have a story from a different teacher; we have our book swap; and we can’t wait for our Dress Up Day on Friday.
