Book Week

It's Book Week! Well, it was yesterday as well but the internet wasn't working so I couldn't post a message. Here's a few things to remember:

We're going to the Book Shop tomorrow so bring some money if you want to buy a book. I don't know how much you should bring.

It's 'Give Your Book To The Y1s' tomorrow so make sure your story is completely finished. The only thing you will have time to do tomorrow is print any writing or pictures and stick them in the book.

It's the Book Parade on Wednesday. As you've been told in at least two letters by now, you can come as any mythical creature or mythical person. As a special treat for anyone who is too unimaginative busy to find a costume in those categories, you can come as any animal FROM A BOOK.

Book Week - The Finalé

Wow! What a great week we've had! I think our last day was the best; dressing up, having a parade, seeing a really exciting assembly and, of course, the best part was......

watching tv!!!! Ye-e-e-s-s-s!!

I've got lots of pictures of people in their costumes and I'll be adding them to the blog over the holidays.

In the meantime, have a great holiday and come back safely and rested next term.

Book Week

I just thought I'd update everyone with a couple of points.

Firstly, we are going to the Book Fair on Tuesday. It is not the kind of fair where you can buy books but more like a travelling Book Club. If you see any books that you like you can fill in an order form and give the money in on Wednesday at the very latest.

Secondly, it's Costume Parade on Wednesday. We'll be doing the parade pretty much straight away, in case any parents want to linger around to take photos. If you're trying to decide what character to come as, you can pick anyone who originally appeared in a book. 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin is not a book character but Little Red Riding Hood is, for example.

Have fun!

Reading it Right

It was our class Book Week performance reading competition today. It seemed that everyone had practiced at home, which was encouraging, and there were some really good performances. Honourable mentions should go to Omar and Serena, who did very well but, when I added up the points that you gave them, the winners were: Tamara, Nadia and Arshee. Apples all round and well done to everybody else.

Things to remember for Book Week!

• Choose a reading for the competition. Maximum 1 minute.
• Think of a costume for Wednesday. No movie characters!
• Choose a cartoon character to draw for our book cover.
