Today we celebrated World Book Day by going on a book hunt! We had to find different book characters hidden around the school. There were 53 in total to find and recognise! Some were books we remembered from when we were younger. We loved seeing some of our favourite characters!

On World Book Day, year 3 came to read to us. We really enjoyed having an older friend to read any book we chose. The children got on so well that we have invited them back.

We enjoyed talking about the book characters. Look at our amazing costumes! 

Thank you to Year 5 for sharing books with us. We enjoyed listening to stories that you read.

What an exciting World Book Day we have had! Our costumes were amazing. Can you recognise any characters from the class photo? We started the day hearing all about the first books and when they were published. We then designed a footprint showing our favourite books to display in school to lead…

We have had a brilliant World Book Day. We have read loads and had fun!
 

After reading The Little Red Hen, we looked at different types of bread. We looked at the texture,  the colour and what we thought about each one. 

In a few weeks, we are going to write a fantasy story so today we looked at different household objects and discussed how they could be incorporated into our stories with magical powers. We had lots of ideas.

This afternoon, Year 2 went dragon hunting around the school. We found quite a few and we’re using prepositions to describe where we found them.

We have been reading the story and the poem of The Pied Piper of Hamelin.  Last week we learnt some of the first verse off by heart.  We hope you enjoy it!

We enjoyed exploring the classroom for bossy verbs, these were spotted through our instructions.

We really enjoyed making our own adventures with Traction Man.
