Book Week

It has been a very busy but fun-filled Book Week in TX! Lots of book characters came to life and we even met a wonderful writer and illustrator! 'Digger!' by Liz Million was our focus story book this week. Today, the children looked amazing in their costumes and we had a fantastic time together in celebrating Book week and also Benz and Royce's 3rd birthday!

Here are the highlights from this week.


               
Favourite Book - We shared our favourite books with everybody in class and made a dinosaur made of mud rock!


              

Meeting Ms Liz Million - Writer and Illustrator of 'Digger!', Ms Liz Million flew all the way from the UK to teach us how to draw book characters. She held a workshop for parents which EYFS children attended. She taught us how to draw a happy, sad, angry and surpised cat by just changing the shapes of the mouths and eyes! It was fantastic!  After the workshop, Ms Liz visited each EYFS class and she taught us how to draw Little Red Riding Hood. We were also very lucky because Ms Liz even read us that story! Wow! Thank you Ms Liz! We hope to read more of your great books!


             

Snuggle-up and Read - Ms Precious read us 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear' by Eric Carle as we sat on the sleeping mats wearing our gorgeous pyjamas. Ms Crislet prepared hot chocolate and we all had it after the story. We even had marshmallows! What a treat! 

             

Dress-up Day - Today, children came in school wearing their favourite book character costumes! We had princesses, a wolf, 'Hello Kitty', a ladybird, a lion, a caterpillar, a fairy, a pirate, a wizard and our 2 birthday boys who both came in as 'Superman'! All of them wore their costumes in stride and were all in characters! Some kept roaring and some kept twirling! Just gorgeous!

             


Well done F1X for a yet another successful event! You all did an amazing job! 




Some Reminders:

- Swimming takes place every Tuesday and Thursday. Please bring in your child's swimming kit on these days.
- Please provide a water bottle for your child. 

Thank you very much! 

*Next week, we will continue with our farm animals and dinosaurs themes. 


Have a wonderful weekend everyone!



Kind Regards,

Ms Crislet, Ms Precious and the F1 team
