Silent Reading has begun

Silent Reading

We have started to use our class library shelf which we have been building all term. We have lots of different authors including our favourites:

- Roald Dahl

- Louis Sachar

- JK Rowling

- David Walliams

- Paul Jennings

Check out these posts by Room 7 who were excited for this!

Central

Rm 7 have stared reading from our class Library shelf.  I chose the book Billy Slater book because I love Rugby League!  I choose theses photos of rugby league for my bookmark, because I watch heaps of NRL and play rugby league too.    

Norah Jade

Walt:  We are learning to design a bookmark

Task description: First we were all on the mat then he showed us what we are doing then we went of and started looking for some images and did it.

I also picked this book because I really liked gangsta granny by david walliams and so I thought it will be cool to pick the same author as gangsta granny.

Dodgeball

Story time:

"Listen to a fantastic story told by Paschal about the great Pt England School Dodgeball tournament of 2018. One team will rise through the ranks to greatness."
