Word of Mouse book box
One photo barely does justice to this detailed and inventive book box based on Word of Mouse from one of our Year 4 Reading Gladiators. I loved the use of quotes from the book but best of all I like the mouse and the trap!

Little Bits of Sky-Memory Book Pages
The Percy Shurmer Academy Year 4 group really enjoyed making their own pages to add to the memory book in Little Bits of Sky. It was so hard to choose one moment to write about, as there were so many great moments to choose from. We hope you like them!

Hello Percy Shurmer Academy. It looks as though you have worked really hard on the memory book pages. Thank you for sharing them with us.5th Feb 2018, 10:36am
Thank you Percy Shurmer gladiators. This activity is the mini-challenge for Little Bits of Sky. If you have time could you photograph the pages separately (and preferably put into a powerpoint so it is one entry) and submit via the submission tab. It can then be included in the competition. Thank you. -
