We’ve also been handing out the £1 book tokens to forms all round the school and showing off the posters for the specially published books.
Sofie, Tegan and Lucy took over the library at lunch to run a very successful and impressively rowdy game of Book Charades, with dozens of students from all year groups taking part. Year 7 dominated though, possibily because they could yell the most.
There were quizzes and competitions with all the entries being taken before the end of the break, and now we’re sitting up in the computer area working on our stories for the various creative writing competitions that our writing groups are entering this term.
Around this merry chaos, reading and knitting continued.
Our charity knitting group are working well and have started sewing their first blanket together. Their skill is increasing every day and there are fewer dropped stitches to pick up now.
Lovely day!
Must just mention what happened when Oscar was reading The Knife of Never Letting Go...
ReplyDeleteHe was reading with Will and Tegan who are giant Chaos Walking fans and looked up suddenly when something BAD happened. They sat together and observed a moment of silence. Bless!
