Week 5     

What’s been happening in the Library:

ELC have been comparing Fiction and NF books on the same topic eg pets

Kinder are making their own ‘Seasons in Australia’ booklet.

Year 1 are having fun with minibeasts  - poetry, stories and activities.

Year 2 are reading and responding to the book ‘Are we there yet?’ by Alison Lester

Year 3 are learning more about different parts of books and their functions eg index, contents, glossary etc

Year 4 have looked at puns, spoonerisms and nonsense poetry. 

They will now be revisiting genre and, in particular, genre in NF eg Myths and Legends.

Year 5 have been exploring A.B Paterson’s poem ‘Mulga Bill’s Bicycle’ with a variety  of activities, including learning to recite it.

Year 6 have completed a biography on a famous Australian, and now are ready to move onto their own autobiography!

*Finally, a big thank you to Mrs Donna Gordon for looking after, and caring for, our St Jude’s Library and classes in my absence.

Happy reading! Verna Comley
