During my day yesterday, it was a wonderful experience in Glenbrae school because it was our first ever book week. As soon as I entered into the school gates, I saw students dressed up as their favourite characters of their favourite books.
I had excitement building up in my body and I was ready to present my diorama about my favourite book called the Night sky. My character was a wise man who always knew about stars and discovered about the sky, that makes him an astronomer. Soon all classes gathered into the hall with amazing costumes and cheerful teachers with their funky costumes. The tables were set up around the hall with all our hard working projects. I was admiring the art works and the costumes.
Our principal announced each class to go up and show off their costumes. They had teachers dancing in the middle with their long, golden hair and their brooms and buckets. Sadly, we didn’t have much students dress up as their favourite character. But it still was a load of fun. Miss Blennerhassett was a judge for our costumes. She was having a hard time choosing people from the seniors, juniors and also the teachers. Guessing other people’s character was great fun.
After the costume parade, we got put into our areas where our dioramas were placed. We waited until we had an audience going around checking the work each class did. It was a great opportunity for me to explain what my book was about and how it affects me to keep reading. This was a great experience and I learnt a lot of things from other students about what they learnt.
This was a big help for me because it helped me know what reading could do to other people and how we can learn more about what other people like about their books.
