Reading Trees = creativity unleashed

I'm so proud of the trees I designed & constructed in the primary & secondary foyers!

Twisted brown paper to make trunks & branches, flowers from yellow & pink plastic bags (resemble peonies!).

Genre posters between the branches, supplemented by I LOVE READING & READ WITH ME POSTERS.

Downloaded the primary genre posters but had to modify some secondary genre posters. Loved designing the Reading posters....such lovely children, handsome young men & pretty young ladies. Really felt great when I saw the finished product I collected the posters from the photocopy shop.

Must take some photos & upload to this blog. All the teachers were full of praise; Danny said "Good job!'. The primary kids were saying "Wah...so beautiful". Definitely worth all the effort :-)

Also downloaded some creative book review sheets & prepared Reading Programme rules for display as well as to paste in primary communication books.

So glad that I asked the F1-3 Creative Writing students to help sort & label the books (Colour coded reading levels) in the reading room. I can slowly label the rest....but there are enough books to start the reading programme.
