Year 2 are Readers
Thu 06 Mar 2025Year 2 have been Readers this week as part of World Book Day. Children have spent the day researching their author Joseph Coelho and created an author journal about him. They have then read his new poetry book and his new novel and shared what they enjoyed in some book talk. During the day, Year 5 have come over and Year 2 have had some reading for pleasure with the older children outside. In the afternoon, they have created their own character cards about their favourite character from a text and then compared these with their friends to see who was the top. We have ended the day with snuggle up and read with parents coming in for children to share their favourite books and have a story.
