Year 6 have had a great day, celebrating their love of reading during St Vincent’s Book Day! Everyone dressed up as their favourite book character and we started the day showing off our wonderful costumes at the whole school assembly.
Back in the classroom, we took part in an exciting nationwide Word Book Day live assembly. We learned more about categorising books into genres and thought about the genres of books that we enjoy reading most.
Next, we had a teacher swap and, while Dolly Parton (Miss Siswick!) went to read to Year 2, Florence Nightingale (Miss Guled!) came to read to us. We then shared our book recommendations with each others and then each wrote a book recommendation to give to Year 5. We ended the morning with some quiet reading time.
In the afternoon, after some more reading time and our weekly music lesson with Mr Hylton, we ended the day with a whole school reading session. Some of us read independently, some with our siblings and some with our parents. It was so lovely to have visitors to the classroom. Thank you for coming to read with us today.
Don’t forget to go to our Reading Blog to tell us why you love reading and to recommend books that you have enjoyed to other children in the class.
Happy Book Day, everyone!
