World Book Day

Lesson: Literacy

Class: Kingfishers EYFS and KS1 Year: 2014 - 2015

The pupils at Crowton Primary School had a fantastic time celebrating World Book day 2015 on 6th March. The children came to school dressed up as their favourite book character; there were some really great costumes and ideas!

Rachael Lindsay, a children's author, visited our school and ran literacy workshops for all classes. The children met the troll's from her stories and learned about their characters. They explored the story of 'Warrior Troll' and imagined the contents of the casket. Rachael spoke to the children about creating characters and settings for stories.

 KS2 children learned about the writing process and planning of a book. They collected a' villainous word bank' to help them describe a villains appearance, movement and speech.
