Fesshole 🧻Primary school teacher here. I'm so over world fucking book day. Most kids barely own a book these days so why waste a day's learning to prance about in nasty, polyester princess or boy wizard costumes? Frozen is not a book and no 7 year old has read Harry Potter. Utter nonsense.

SupermoosieLots of Frozen books the kids can read.
Just because it was a movie, doesn't mean it can't inspire kids to read

🇺🇦🇪🇺 cweickhmann@fesshole Wait? None of the kids come as Estragon or Vladimir? Bummer.
Gammitin (Ben) 💾@fesshole but quite happy to "waste a day's learning" multiple times a year for teacher training, that should just be done when they have like 3 times the amount of holidays as everyone else.
Jon Edge, Ed.D. 😈They're not holidays you twit. They're unpaid days.

Was very relieved when I saw it was world book day and I didn’t need to scramble to get a costume, or make one from scratch, for this tradition.
And my youngest IS an avid reader, making it easier than for my eldest, but he reads... non fiction. Managed to dress him as a black hole one year and a T-cell the other. It was hard.

trainguyrom@fesshole as soon as my oldest was moved to a crib in their own room I started reading to them every night at bedtime. Fast forward to when they started school and the teacher told us how well they sit for stories and how she can tell we read to her a lot. Fast forward to today and they are a veracious reader
