Book Week Day 1 "Character Parade"

DAY 1: PARADE OUT BOOKS

Prep Girls Section organized the assembly on ‘Parade Out Books’ on Monday, November 12, 2018. The parade was one of the events of Book Week and the aim was to provide children with a strong foundation and appetite for reading. Students of Class 6, Class 7 and Class 8 showcased their course novels Matilda, Phantom Tollbooth and The Hobbit respectively. The announcement was made two weeks prior to the event. Auditions were taken and selection was made. Students wore costumes depicting their favourite characters in stories.

A competition was organized and Dr. Azra Shaheryar, Network Academic Coordinator was invited to judge participants’ performance. A ramp was setup for the students. Each character spoke for 1 minute about their role in the novel. Students displayed confidence, enthusiasm and presented themselves closely as characters’ physical trait and attire.

The students were judged on the basis on confidence, attire, facial expressions/ gestures and content presentation.
