BOOK WEEK 16th AUGUST - 22nd AUGUST 2014
So this week we have been celebrating book week. This year the them is:
"Connect to Reading - Reading to Connect".
For more information on Book Week, including the list of shortlisted books of 2014 follow this link to the Children's Book Council of Australia website:
Below are some photo images of displays that our library staff have created to promote the theme for book week and to encourage students to pick up a book during the celebration.
 | This
puzzle display promotes the book week theme of "Connect to
reading-Reading to connect". It prompts people to think about what real
things in life they can connect to through reading by asking them to
assemble the picture puzzles. The puzzles reveal answers such as,
places, people, ideas/imagination, learning, culture, emotions and more. | |
| The following displays highlight the Children's Book Council Australian Shortlisted books and displays that include from Page to Screen titles and that again connect to reading. |
Promoting book week is not just about encouraging students to read, but also can be used as an opportunity to engage with them through reading and so we also arrange some alternative activities for students to participate in during their weekly library lessons.
The activities running this year that have been a big hit with the primary students include the following:
- The Book Scavenger Hunt
- A game of Charades
- Making funny faces
- Making Homemade Books
