This week we have had a great time celebrating World Book Day and fostering a love of stories and reading with the children. Throughout the week we have been story mapping one of our favourite stories ‘Dear Zoo’. We then innovated the story by changing some of the characters. The children had some excellent ideas such as a dragon who was too fiery and a leopard who was too fast! Over half term, we were set a challenge of reading a book in an unusual place. The photos shared by children and staff alike were very creative and we had great fun sharing these at group time! To finish the celebrations, we did a book swap in Nursery. Thank you to all of the families who brought in wrapped books for the exchange. There were lots of happy children taking their new stories home to share.
