Most of the children in our class like to read, and so the people who do, formed a book club. We meet every Tuesday from 11:00am to 11:30am. We swap books and then the next week we tell the people about our likes and dislikes on that book.We have split the book club into two groups but sometimes we meet up as one.We usually read a paragraph of our favourite bits.You can take as many books as you want but you have got to keep track of who has your books. Then we ask anyone who wants our books and swap. Our clubs are called the Book Worms and in each club there is a Captain Worm. Jaydean is the captain of our club and Monica is the captain of the other.
This week we were all together and took pictures of our books and said our favourite parts then made them into a movie.You can see this on the blog. Soon we might start to fundraise so we can go shopping and buy books that the people in the club would like to read. If you borrow a book you have to put a sticky on it to say who it is. We have to get a variety of books because there are boys as well. Not just girly books . Not only we are just a book club but we write large stories. Maryam is the first to try this out and her story is fabulous.Here is a link to her wiki where you can read it.
Here is a video of some of us describing our favourite book, or reading an extract from it.

She wrote:
I keep having these moment where i want to write something but go to write and can’t think of anything! Some days i have good ideas and make long posts but others i am siting staring at the screen thinking of what to write. At first i thought great a blog, somewhere to put my thoughts and feelings and i had millions of things i thought about putting on but know i am stuck on what to write about lol! But like don’t get me wrong i love writing as you can maybe see but i just have these days where nothing comes to my head . Well i suppose this is an idea for a post! Haha!!!!!!
Then she wrote:
“Have you ever wished you could do something or be someone? Well i have and i would like to share it. When i was young i always wished that i was famous but now i realise that they are just normal people but just have more money, as they have been very successful.
But now my mind has changed as i am older. I wish that i could fly and be invisible. I know it sounds weird but if you think about it’s quite cool . Anyway i think it would be great to be invisible and be able to fly as you could go ANYWHERE (and i mean anywhere) in the world!
If you could, comment back and say what you wish you could do or someone you wish to be!”
What a great post … and thank you Darcie for inspiring me to write a post, too.

I wonder if any other P7V’s have been struggling with what to write? Maybe Darcie is right … just go for it
