Last week was book week so our week was full of book related activities. Here were some of my favourites:
Kate De Goldi
A New Zealand author called Kate De Goldi came to talk to us and it was quite interesting. She read us stories that she wrote when she was younger and then showed us some of the published books that she's written. It was interesting to hear about her life story and how she gets her ideas for her books from events around her. It really showed me that a lot of time, hard work and effort goes in to writing a book.
Costume
I enjoyed helping make Mr Cunningham's costume for book character day. He was dressed as a wonka chocolate bar along with the other intermediate teachers. There was lot's of sketching and painting involved then we decided to add a bit of glitter which annoyed Ms Bolger.
Book quiz
Even though I wasn't in the book quiz I enjoyed watching it. Brigidene did really well. I was going through all of the answers that I knew in my head and then the house captains asked some questions to the audience. All of the house captains had put in a lot of effort and the powerpoints with the questions were really good.
