WORLD BOOK DAY - Digital Library
Click on the book covers to hear the author reading from their book. There are lots of really exciting looking books and some of your favourties too on these bookshelves, so go ahead and click on one and enjoy. Or you might choose a book that you would not normally choose and who knows but you might discover a new author that you will grow to love! You might even pick more than one. ENJOY!!!
WORLD BOOK DAY - Scavenger Hunt
For the World Book Day scavenger hunt you will need a whole pile of books to choose from. Look at the scavenger hunt sheet on the button below and see if you can find some or all of the things that it asks you to find. Happy hunting!
World Book Day - CBBC Live Lesson
Just like on Online Safety Day, there is a live lesson on CBBC or on iPlayer at 11:30am.
Click on the button below and it will take you to the website.
WORLD BOOK DAY - BOOK COVER
Think about your favourite book and design a new book cover for it. Make sure that your new cover includes the name of the book and also the names of the author and the illustrator too. Be creative!
WORLD BOOK DAY - TRUE OR FALSE QUIZ
Using 2Quiz on Purple Mash create a True or False Quiz for your favourite book. Don’t forget to give your quiz a title (the title of the book + true or false quiz). Make sure that you write statements (not questions) in the top box and give the correct answer (true or false) in the bottom box.
(I showed you how to create a true or false quiz yesterday when we were doing our work on The House Haunting.)
WORLD BOOK DAY - 6 picture story.
Tell your favourite story in 6 pictures. Divide your page into 6 equal parts. Think about your favourite story and see if you can draw one picture in each part of the page to tell the whole of the story. It is really important that you decide what the main parts of the story are because other wise you will need to draw more than 6 pictures. Try to include as much detail as you can in each picture. Once you have drawn your pictures, retell your story.
WORLD BOOK DAY - book review.
Using the book review 2Do on Purple Mash, complete a book review for your favourite book. Remember to add enough detail to make other people want to read the book but do not give them the whole story because if you do they wont need to read the book. Have fun!
