National Book Week

This week is National Book Week. In Room 4, we participated in Book Week by reading a book a day from this year's shortlisted books, focused on one book,  joined in with the whole school to share in a variety of activities, individually voted on our favourite book and dressed up as our favourite character from a book. We had a great time!

Our focus book was 'Parachute'.  A parachute is the first thing that Toby puts on each morning. It gives him the courage to deal with all kinds of tricky situations, such as getting out of bed, sliding off a chair, and riding his bike. But sometimes someone else's troubles can be greater than your own, and this is what Toby discovers one day. This is a powerful and fantastical story about a fearful child finding his independence.

 After our reading of 'Parachute', we played with a parachute.

Dress up for Book Week

 Batman was there.

 This was very creative, a stuffed rabbit was cut up and stuffing removed and made the perfect Peter Rabbit.

ECE staff came as characters from 'The Wizard of Oz'.

The staff of Treendale PS made an effort to dress up too!
