Congratulations to 6B, Crew Blackham, for passing the most quizzes on Accelerated Reader this week. A shoutout goes to 3L, Crew Lister, for moving up into second place after being third place for three weeks running.
Remember every time you pass a quiz you are in with a change of winning a box of Dunkin Doughnuts. You’ve got to read to be in it!

We had a great day celebrating books at Plover. There were all sorts of characters walking around from Gangsta Granny to Mr and Mrs Twit; Mary Poppins and Wonky Donkey; Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf in Grandma’s clothing- plus lots, lots more!
We had lots of potato photos for the potato character competition and some great reviews on the Padlet – check out the books that have been recommended – they are bound to make you LOL!
Our Masked Reader competition was very popular – well done to Harper in 4G for correctly identifying all 20 of the Masked Readers
We have lots of photos of the day so check out our World Book Day Website for many more: https://sites.google.com/ploverschool.co.uk/ploverworldbookday2021/home
Take a look at our World Book Day website! Children have looked at the website during Crew this morning. We currently have a lot of excitement in school as children ask one another, ‘Who’s that behind the book?’ Each day leading up to World Book Day, 4 masked readers will be added to the site with clues to their identity. Can you guess who is behind each book?
Are you feeling inspired? Why not send a picture of yourself, with your face hidden behind a book, to your teacher. You could try other ways to disguise your identity too! You can also write your own clues to try and help your peers work out who is hiding!

This week in Year 3 and 4 we have learning all about…….rocks!
You wouldn’t think there was a lot to say about a rock, but ask any of our LKS2 children and they will tell you that rocks have hidden depths!
We have learnt that they can be Igneous, Metamorphic or Sedimentary and what the difference is between them.
We have put our learning into practice today, using chocolate! It was a bit messy and some of us found it very difficult to fight the temptation of eating the chocolate, but we were able to show how sedimentary and metamorphic rocks are formed.
Check out the website to try the activity at home – but don’t forget to send in the photos!

This is becoming my favourite part of the Pride of Plover Assembly, announcing which class is the winner of the Accelerated Reader League!
Congratulations to 6C who have passed the most quizzes, for two weeks running. However, 6B was very close – it was tight by only 1.6%!
A shoutout goes to 3L, who have been in the top 3 places for the last three weeks.
1st place: 6C
2nd place: 6B
3rd place: 3L
We have seen an increase in the number of quizzes passed for most classes, which means lots of reading and quizzing is happening- both at home and in school! Keep up the awesome reading KS2.
#LovePlover!
Children across school have been reading and quizzing to be entered to win a box of 6 Dunkin Donuts. Your teachers are incredibly proud of the effort you have put into reading over the past few weeks!
Due to success of this competition, we have decided to run the competition again! There will be a winner from each class and every time you read (and quiz for those children in KS2) in school or at home, you will be entered into the draw!
You have from Friday 26th February until Thursday 26th March to enter. Winners will be announced in Pride of Plover assembly on Friday 27th March, with the winners bringing their boxes of donuts home from school with them!
Good luck everyone!
