Book Week – A Worthwhile Experience<br />

Book Week is when we celebrate World Book Day. World Book day is a non-charitable organisation.<br />

It provides book tokens to 15 million people, that’s every young person under 18 in the United Kingdom.<br />

To celebrate World Book Day staff from <strong>Cranford</strong> Community Collage provided us with a coupon to get<br />

£1 off any book or get a free World Book Day book, created by some fabulous authors such as Malorie<br />

Blackman and many more. Reading is good and every child should read as it is excellent for the brain and<br />

it can improve your English skills which is helpful when you learn new things. So, Mr Ladva decided that<br />

we were going to have a Book Week which is fun filled with glorious events.<br />

On Monday 13th March <strong>2019</strong>, I participated in the Manga workshop. Zahra Sadiq was a very spectacular<br />

tutor. Zahra is in the sixth form and she taught 30 students how to draw (which sometimes it not the easiest<br />

thing). I really appreciated that Zahra gave her time to teach us new skills. Magnificent and spectacular are<br />

some of the words I would use to describe this fabulous workshop. Zahra’s drawing skills are out of this<br />

world; The technique which she uses is surreal. Some famous Manga books are: Pokémon, Death Note,<br />

Naruto and many more. She taught us to be creative and have fun and that Manga can be whatever you<br />

envisage it to be. I really loved the workshop and now I am practising drawing regularly as I find Manga<br />

very intriguing subject to learn and draw about.<br />

On Tuesday 14th March <strong>2019</strong> was the poetry workshop presented by Huzayma Khamis who is in year 13.<br />

I was very interested to learn about poetry, as poetry is not my strongest subject. I went to the workshop<br />

because I wanted to stretch my knowledge and what I already knew about poetry. We learnt about Huzayma’s<br />

favourite poets. Huzayma really likes strong and passionate poems. We created our own poems and she<br />

gave me some tips and advice, which was brilliant. I really appreciated the advice. At the end, some people<br />

performed their brilliant poems. They were splendid. I have learned many new phrases and words that I can<br />

use: Rhyming couplets, metaphoric language, similes and many more language techniques which I have<br />

learned. I really appreciated the help that Huzayma gave me and I hope to expand my knowledge about<br />

poetry even more and to start writing poems often. Overall the poetry workshop has been a worthwhile<br />

experience and I am delighted that I had the opportunity to attend this spectacular workshop.<br />
