Reception show literacy skills

Our reception class (Buzzy Bees) thoroughly enjoyed celebrating World Book Day in March.

The boys looked at 2 books – ‘The Pirates Next Door’ by Jonny Duddle and ‘I want my hat back’ by Jon Klassen.  The boys undertook a myriad of activities to celebrate, having listened to the story together:

The Pirates Next Door

• Message in a bottle
• Draw a pirate map
• Make a pirate hat
• Make a pirate pizza for lunch

I want my hat back

• Create a story map, drawing the animals in the story
• Do the World Book Day scavenger hunt
• Use junk modelling to make hats for your toys
• Colour and make a bookmark
• Make bear cupcakes for your tea!

The boys did a brilliant job, and you can see their results below.
