Silent and not so silent reading

Hi Folks!
This week in the library lessons in the Biblioteca Elemental we have been practising silent reading.  It seems to me that silent reading is becoming a bit of a lost art.  Reading has to compete with noisy gadgets, computer games and TV!

It wasn´t like that when I was a child! It was more like this picture!

I remember sometimes in my school in year 3 we would relax, with our heads on the desk and listen to the teacher tell a story. One day we listened to the story of Peter and the wolf.  You probably know this story but did you know that it has special music to go with it?  All the characters are played by different musical instruments. It´s wonderful!   Click here to view it.

Older readers may like to check out this little clip of David Bowie reading the story! Click here.

You can also check out the book from the library.

Have a super week and find time for silent reading!
