BOOK WEEK 2024
1: Book Reviews
Encourage students to dive into the CBCA shortlisted books and write their own reviews
How? Create a "Book Review Wall" in your classroom where students can post their reviews and rate the books they've read.
Why? This activity not only improves critical thinking and writing skills but also allows students to share their thoughts and recommendations with peers.
2: Creative Costumes
Host a costume day where studens dress up as their favourite book characters.
How? Organise a parade or a fashion show where students can showcase their costumes and explain why they chose their character.
Why? This activity sparks creativity and brings beloved stories to life.
3: Interactive Storytelling
Transform your classroom into a magical storytelling space. Use props, costumes, and a cozy reading corner to make stories come alive.
How? Invite guest storytellers, such as parents or local authors, to share their favourite tales.
Why? This immersive experience helps students connect with stories on a deeper level.
4: Street Library
Set up a street library in your school to promote book sharing and community spirit.
How? Encourage students to bring in books they no longer need and exchange them for new ones.
Why? This activity fosters a sense of community and encourages reading outside the classroom.
5: Reading Challenges
Create a reading challenge for the week with specific goals and rewards.
How? Track their progress on a classroom chart and celebrate their achievements with small prizes or certificates.
Why? These activities will challenge students to read a certain number of books or pages, or to explore different genres.
