For World Book Day this year, we celebrated the day by becoming investigators. We had to solve a problem linked to a popular children’s book through drama and role-play activities. The children’s book chosen for the year group was linked to their English core text – either a similar theme or by the same author. In the second half of the day, after the mystery problem had been solved, the children had the opportunity to become publishers and create a book. They had to write the day’s events into the form of a story. The day was completed with a mini-celebration within class, nominating the winner of the ‘best costume’ and ‘best investigator’.
