Happy World Book Day everyone!
Today, Year 3 had a special visitor as part of the school’s ongoing celebrations leading up to World Book Day this Thursday. Alina Constantine, a bilingual story teller, read to the children an exciting story in Romanian and English.
The children also learnt some Romanian key words and took part in freeze frame activities to show case their new learning- linked to the MFL curriculum.
As part of PSHE “Respecting Differences” the children were also given insight into aspects of Romanian life and culture.

Who would have thought poor Gangsta Granny could get quite so confused with writing a letter… Luckily, Mr Stink and the Boys in their dresses were there to save the day!
Unfortunately, some of us were too scared of the Demon Dentist to tell her she’d put the address in the wrong place – we all know it needs to go in the top right corner really!
Huge thanks to our amazing Ratburger burglars too, for reminding us how to include an introduction and conclusion in our letter!
Today, we celebrated World Book Day by dressing up as our favourite book characters from stories written by Roald Dahl.
Our chosen book was ‘The Twits’ and we spent the day emerging ourselves in the text with fun and exciting activities.
One of our main activities was to re-create a scene from the book using puppets. We made our own puppets and backgrounds, wrote scripts and then recorded the whole scene on an IPAD.
Fir class really enjoyed dressing up for world book day!
They took part in a range of word games to help their story writing skills and carried out activities related to ‘Bills New Frock’
Well done for a super effort everyone!
Today the team got into the spirit of things and dressed up to celebrate World Book Day. Anthony Browne was our inspiration and this is what we came up with.
Can you guess who’s who?
This week the children have been bringing in books ready for their book swap on World Book Day. We have had lots of books brought in and plenty of happy children with their new books.
As part of world book week, children bought in unwanted books from home throughout the week and received a voucher for each book. Today, year 1 really enjoyed visiting the Ks1 Book Swap Emporium and had an enormous array of books to choose from.
To celebrate World Book Day, the children at Hazeldown School have been bringing in their old books to exchange for new ones to read!
Next week, we will start our new topic ‘A World of Fantasy’ which coincides with book week. The children will be writing their own fantasy/adventure story and make a movie trailer to advertise it!
Have a look at the plan to see the other exciting things we are doing which relate to the topic!
Can you think of other activities which relate to the topic which we could possibly include in our SOLE work?
