We have been joining in with children and staff throughout our school and indeed the country, to celebrate World Book Day.
The children looked fabulous in their costumes. Miss Hunt, Miss Whelan and Miss Killelay dressed up as characters from The Colour Monster… one of favourite books of all time!
Our chosen author was James Dean the creator of another Nursery favourite… ‘Pete the Cat and his White Shoes’. The book we chose today was ‘Pete the Cat and the Perfect Pizza Party’ – all the toppings for the perfect pizza began with the letter sound ‘p’ which was perfect as this is what we have been listening out for in our phonics sessions!
In the Creative Area we made our own perfect pizza, using various materials to collage the toppings. We also selected a book from the reading area and learnt how to create a Story Journey Map to match the sequence (or ‘journey’ of the story).
And of course, there was plenty of opportunities to hear stories throughout the day.
On behalf of the Nursery children, we would just like to say a great big thank you to the Friends of Raddlebarn, who very kindly bought each child a book to take home.
