Term 2 Week 2 -Literacy Week

 Hello Parents, 

This week we celebrated Literacy Week.  The  purpose of the week was to promote the importance of literacy across the curriculum so that students understand that basic literacy skills are important  in all lessons and not just in English. The students participated in a number of reading based activities. These were the highlights of the week:


Throughout the week, we were encouraged to answer some questions about books and literature. We took on the challenge with great excitement as we visited each floor for the book trivia displays. 


We invited parents to come to the classroom and read a book to us in any language. We were very happy to host an effective and engaging family reading experience.

  

As a class, we worked together to write a poem. We also created some characters for a story challenge. 


As part of our school's literacy week, we visited the book fair corner in the library. We all bought at least one book during the book fair. We enjoyed the book fair and were excited to look at all the books

                           

                     

                      


We identified characters from different types of books in a fun and interactive game. 
                                 


We were very happy to visit the Grade 6 classroom to participate in their literacy activity. 



Reading Reunion-We were very excited to reunite with our former homeroom teacher . She came to our classroom to read a story to us.  



 On the final day of Literacy Week, we all came to school dressed as our favorite book characters.







                
                

                

Have a good weekend!
