World Book Day

2 Year Olds

A fun morning was had by all for World Book Day in the two year nursery. We read the story Shark in the Park on a Windy Day, by Nick Sharratt. We made our very own telescopes using glue and a variety of materials. We then headed to the secret garden to look for sharks. We found an umbrella, a hat, scarf and a newspaper. We then rescued the baby from being blown into the pond and found some ducks and a shark. We also played with sharks in the water tray and ducks with gel in the sensory tray. We loved looking at all the other books in the story corner.

3 Year Olds

Today our 3 Year Old Nursery children had lots of fun celebrating World Book Day. We dressed up in our favourite character costumes or our cosy pyjamas ready for a bedtime story. I think you will agree we all look fantastic! We read the story ‘The Tiger Who Came to Tea’ by Judith Kerr and enjoyed lots of activities in
Nursery linked to the story. We had a tea party with our friends with cups of tea (decaf) and cakes. We thought about who we might like to invite to a tea party and what it would be like if a Tiger came to Nursery and ate all our food and drank all our drinks! We loved listening to the song ‘Hey Tiger’ by Robbie Williams from the film of the story and learnt the
Makaton signs for Tiger and Tea. We finished off our morning with another story about a Tiger which we voted for and dough disco to ‘Eye of the Tiger’ Your children have each brought a voucher home which allows them to choose a free book from a selection 📕 🐅 ☕

Year 2 read Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge by the Australian author Mem Fox. Children wrote about the characters, completed maths problems to solve jokes and compared Australia with the UK. It was a busy but fun day!

Acorn Class

For World book day we all in came in dressed up either in a costume from a book the e.g. Gruffalo, Batman or in pyjamas all comfy ready for a bedtime story. We looked and at lots of different stories and explained what an Author and Illustrator is. We were so excited we went on a book hunt. We discussed the front cover of what the books were called that we needed to find. It was lots of fun.

Year 3

In year 3, our class reader has been Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. To celebrate World Book Day, we did lots of Harry Potter themed reading and writing activities. We visited the school library and chose our own free choice books to take home to read with our family. We listened to stories and read together. It was a great day!

Year 5 read The Black Dog by Levi Pinfold and then created their own version of the story with a few changes. They created their own pictures and version of the story on Chromebooks, which Mr Stead printed off and turned into their very own book!
