\"world-book-day-2015-(10)\"From Paddington Bear, to the Cat in the Hat and Horrid Henry, colourful characters were everywhere to be seen at Provo Primary on World Book Day. \u00a0All the children were\u00a0invited to come dressed up as their favourite story book character and take part a day of fun reading activities. The children enjoyed the opportunity to parade in front of each other, and in their classes talked about their book characters and why they chose to dress up as them. Guest storytellers also came to read stories to the children in our garden area and we even had a teddy bear’s picnic!<\/p>\n

We believe that encouraging children to role play through dress up and becoming, for example, The Gruffalo or Elsa from Frozen is beneficial in developing imagination from an early age and a love of reading.\u00a0Dress-up day certainly has made the children more excited about reading, which is already a real strength of our school.<\/p>\n
