OUR BOOK TRAILERS
For BOOK WEEK we made Book Trailers for the Children's Book Council of Australia short listed picture books.
To make our book trailers we firstly had to find out what a book trailer was, Mr S showed us some examples of book trailers. We talked about the features of book trailers and which ones we liked the best. We all decided that we really liked the ones that had music that went with them and the ones that weren't too long.
In class we read some of the short listed picture books. With Mrs R we came up with our own criteria for what we thought we would need to include in our book trailers to make them a good book trailer and then we came up with features that would make them EXCEPTIONAL.
We worked with a partner and decided which picture book we would do. We then planned our story board. After that we spent class time working on our book trailers using Keynote and Garage Band to create our music. We thought creating your own music would make it an EXCEPTIONAL book trailer, most of us did this but some decided to use other music.
After we had finished them we had to mark our own book trailers using the criteria sheet, then Mrs R marked them.
We worked really well with our partners and enjoyed completing this task.
Most of us chose the books MY UNCLE'S DONKEY, WHY I LOVE AUSTRALIA and MIRROR.
We hope you enjoy our Book Trailers.

The Cotton Hoppers
On Monday 25th July children from Mt Cotton School came to do a skipping demonstration for us. The were called the Mt Cotton Hoppers. Mrs T organised for them to come out to our school because we are getting ready for our Jump Rope For Heart jump off on September 6th. They showed us lots of great moves and gave us some great ideas for our own routines. Here is a video of their performance.

QUAD BLOGGING
Year 3, we are going to take part in a global project called QUAD BLOGGING. We are part of a group of schools who are going to visit each others blogs, see what they do at their school and leave comments on their blog. Each fortnight one blog will be the focus blog and the other members of the group visit this blog and leave comments. We might even have tasks that we have to do.
I have made a page on our blog called OUR QUAD BLOGGING BUDDIES. On this page it has a list of our buddies and by clicking on the school's name it will take you to their blog.
We are in QUAD 20.
Do you know why it is called QUAD BLOGGING? Leave a comment if you have worked it out!

BOOK WEEK PARADE
On Wednesday 24th August, our school had a Book Week Parade to celebrate BOOK WEEK. Every year there is a special theme. This year the theme was ONE WORLD MANY STORIES.
The whole school dressed up as a character from a book. Even the teachers dressed up. They acted out one of the short listed books - "The Tall Man and His Babies". Each class then paraded in front of the whole school and the judges, Mrs R and Mrs M. A winner was chosen from each year level. We really enjoyed ourselves and it was a great way to celebrated Book Week.
THE BOOK WEEK PARADE WINNERS!
