Fiji Day Celebration

10/13/2017

1 Comment

 
We celebrated Fiji Day on Friday, Week 1 of term 4 with a beautiful, informational display in the library about Fiji and the process leading up to Independence day. Throughout the week, I read the book "Mean and nasty toatoa" written by Diane and Simione Beranaliva. The illustrator spent his childhood in Suvavou village, Lami. In the book, he tells the story of his  encounter with the nasty toatoa (lion fish) on one of his Sunday expedition to the Suvavou reef. This Non fiction book is beautifully illustrated and depicts the life of a young Fijian boy living by the sea. A perfect book to read leading up to Fiji day assembly!

Fiction vs Non fiction

10/9/2017

0 Comments

 
Term 4 started off with library lessons revisiting the Fiction and Nonfiction genre with primary classes. We used old scholastic book club catalogs to cut out the front cover pictures of books from either genre and pasting them under the correct column. A great way of using left over catalogs and reinforcing fine motor skills for the lower primary and differentiating between the two genres for all levels.
