Book Day

During the week before easter holidays the school celebrated Book Day. All the students at the school visited our new library, which had really interesting exhibitions. One of them was an exhibition of some important books in the lives of the students in this class. Another was the noticeboard full of nice slogans to foster and promote reading, both in English and French. 

These two activities were the end product of an online didactic unit previously worked in class. You can see it here
