What a fun day in school today as we all celebrate World Book Day!
We did so many fun things! We came into class this morning to find a book at our desks. We could keep and read the book or swap with a friend. After ten minutes, we met with our P7 buddies and worked together to do a book hunt. We had to find hidden bookmarks along the corridor and each book mark contained a letter. We found 10 letters and then had to rearrange them and the letters spelt out a famous character from a story. We figured out the letters spelt…
P A D D I N G T O N.
On return to class we listened to a Paddington story and drew a picture of him.
Throughout the day we also listened to an Authors Live story, coloured in a fairytale poster of lots of different characters and matched them to the correct fairytale, designed and coloured a bookmark, read with our P7 buddies, made up silly stories and did a book character listening activity!!! We had the best day.
Thank you to the children who donated a book for the Book Swap!
