Day 1
To celebrate World Book Day, we’re bringing a little mystery to our reading!
Pupils have been exploring the bookshelves of different members of staff. They’ve been closely examining the titles, genres and even the decorations on display, looking for clues. Their challenge is to work out which staff member each bookshelf belongs to!
It’s a fantastic way to share our love of reading, spark thoughtful discussions, and discover new favourites together.
A new mystery shelf will be revealed each day! Can you guess who this one belongs to? Today’s selection includes an exciting blend of mythology, history, powerful fiction and global adventures.
Day 2
A brand-new shelf has appeared!
Pupils have once again been putting their detective skills to the test during form time, exploring the titles, genres and clues hidden among the books and decorations.
What do these choices reveal about their owner? Are there any hints in the themes, authors or styles?
Take a close look… can you guess which member of staff this bookshelf belongs to?
Day 3
Another day, another shelf to solve!
During form time, pupils have been analysing today’s selection, discussing recurring themes, favourite authors and the subtle clues hidden in the display.
What do these book choices tell us about their owner? Is there a clear pattern, or is this reader full of surprises?
Study the shelf carefully… can you guess which member of staff it belongs to?
Day 4
The mystery continues!
Today’s bookshelf has sparked lots of discussion during form time, as pupils explore the range of titles and search for clues in the genres, themes and display details.
What do these choices reveal about the reader behind the shelf? Are there any standout hints that give it away?
