World Book Day - Thursday 3rd March

WHERE'S WALLY?


We have been celebrating World Book Day in Class 2. We love reading the Where's Wally? books by Martin Hanford. There's always BIG competition to find him before anyone else does! We have been doing lots of fun Where's Wally? activities this week.

The search is on!...........

We had a race to find Wally in 2 huge posters.  Only 2 teams managed to find both Wally's within the 5 minute time limit. The winning time was 2 minutes and forty one seconds! some of us are still looking..... 










We had a Wally Wordathon - with our partners we had 5 minutes to write a list of as many words beginning with 'W' as we could think of. Altogether the class managed to write down 54 different words.


  


We worked in pairs to make our own Class 2 Where's Wally? book. We came up with ideas for different Where's Wally? scenes: Wally goes to Hongkong, Wally under the Sea, Wally goes swimming, Wally in Space, Army Wally, Wally in the Desert, Wally at the beach, Wally at the Zoo and Wally Aboard.



We took Wally to gym and tried to pin his glasses and hat on him while blindfolded. It was quite tricky and some of us had more luck than others!











We coloured in our own Wally pictures and they were hidden all over the school.  It was so much fun going around trying to find them. He turned up on walls, in drawers, in the book case and even on a plane!Just before home time we managed to find the last of our 19 Wally's. Phew!

We had a visit from Wally! Do you recognise our Wally?
