This morning we enjoyed a book in the library, it felt nice and chilled and we loved reading ”look up” especially because it was about space!
Reading in the library!

Reading out of school 🌞📚
In the week Millie and Harlie took some pictures of them enjoying a good book in the sunshine after school. It is lovely to see the girls having a love for reading!
Entry ticket into reading 🎟️
For our reading entry ticket, we had to imagine we were the main character of our book. We had to think of what we had read in the previous 4 chapters and generate two truth and a lie about his experience so far. We then shared with someone in the room to find our lie. This activity really showed how great our comprehension skills are!
Boarding Bob’s spaceship 🚀
Today we have read the next part of our story, where Bob gets changed to board his rocket ship. We loved boarding our class rocket ship and completing a crossword to keep ourselves busy.

Video Call with an author
Today, year 6 children met the author P.G Bell, the writer of THE TRAIN TO IMPOSSIBLE PLACES.

Reading with Rosie 📚🧸
Super readers in Crew Godley
Well done to Leo, Leon, Thomas and Lily~Ann who have all read twice this week already at home and have had their reading record books signed.
I wonder if we can have more children being rewarded this week?
Fiction or non fiction?
Today in our book talk reading lesson we looked at the features of fiction and non fictions books. We worked in pairs to group the features and had a fantastic discussion around them. We linked them to previous books we have read and our class shared read.
Pyjamarama Day!
On Friday 16th June 2023 we will be celebrating Pyjamarama! At Carcroft Primary School we really value the importance of reading and we are going to take part in this special day to celebrate the love of books and reading.
Children will be spending the day reading, enjoying, and sharing stories all in the comfort of their pyjamas, to encourage children to read for pleasure.
During the school day each crew will participate in a range of exciting activities including sharing their favourite books, listening to other children and staff reading their favourite books, reenacting stories through drama and lots more fun activities! We hope that these will support our drive to maintain, promote and engage our children’s interest in reading. Each Crew Leader will create a blog at the end of the day so that you can all see the exciting things that your child/ren have been getting up to throughout the day!
As part of this exciting day we are asking for the children (and staff!) to come to school dressed in their pyjamas or comfy clothes! As always please make sure that these are appropriate for the school day. Children are welcome to wear their slippers but we would advise that children bring these in a separate bag and then change into them once inside the school building.
For this occasion we will not be asking for any donations.
In preparation for the day it would be lovely for you to share some of your favourite stories with your child/ren and also encourage them to share theirs with you, and if they don’t have one maybe discuss what books they love to read or share some books together.
As part of this day, and in connection with Father’s Day on Sunday 18th June we would like to welcome all male family members into school, such as a dad, grandad, papa, uncle, brother, whoever is important to your child/ren to share a book together. For every crew this will be at 2:30 until the end of the day. We hope to see as many of you there as possible!
We look forward to seeing your child/ren dressed in their pyjamas for this special celebration!
