Welcome to BOOK WEEK at ABIS!

Today your child has brought home a reading log. This is to record everything they read between now and next Thursday. Please sign your name each day. Totals from each house will be added together to find the Winning House of The Most Readers!

We have photo competitions running through the week.

Reading in wacky and weird places. Take a photo of your child reading in a wacky place. Photos will be displayed on a board inside the library and you will all have a chance to vote on the most interesting photo. The photo with the most votes wins.

Match the teacher to their favourite books. Photos of teachers and books will be on display in the library. Children can try to match the teacher to their favourite children’s book.

Quizzes will run each lunchtime in the library. Sunday Grade1 and 2, Monday Grades 3 and 4, Tuesday Grades 5 and 6. Secondary quiz will be held in the SLS on Wednesday morning starting at 8.20. The winning teams can choose a book from the Scholastic pamphlet and will win 50 points for their house.

Make your own bookmark in the library at morning tea time. Sunday Grades 5 and 6, Monday Grades 1 and 2 and Tuesday Grades 3 and 4.

Other happenings:

Mystery Reader every morning in the MPA starting at 8.20. Mother Tongue Readers on Tuesday at 8.40 – 9am.

Individual teachers will be doing special activities in class.

Secondary Students will be reading to Primary classes.

Book Swap – an opportunity to trade a book you have read for a new one.

We look forward to seeing you throughout the week and DON’T forget our Dress Up Parade in the gym on Thursday morning starting at 8.45am.
