Well, this is certainly not how we were expecting to spend World Book Day!  I feel like I’ve been transported to Narnia!

Earlier this week our class was lucky enough to partake in both a Book Swap (organised by P3M) and a trip to the local library in Broxburn. Hopefully this has equipped you all with plenty of literature to read!

We’re not in school today, but that doesn’t mean we cannot celebrate World Book Day!  Here is a list of activities that you could try out to join in the fun:

• Get cosied up with a book
• Create a book character from snow
• Re-create the setting or an event from a book (you could use snow, lego… your imagination is the limit!)
• Re-tell your favourite book as a comic strip (you could use this Comic Strip Book Task or create your own)
• Design a front cover and blurb for your favourite book
• Watch a film adaptation of a book you have read and compare and contrast it to the book
• Prepare for the book character ‘Hot Seat’ challenge (see homework Task 1 for more details)

If you can take pictures of your snow characters or book scenes, I would love to see them, and I’m sure your classmates would too.  You could bring them in to school or upload them to your Student Story on Class Dojo.

Enjoy the snow and please stay safe and warm,

Mrs Hare 🙂
