Reading

This week we continue with another week of non-fiction reading! I wonder what interesting facts we will learn this week?

 

Did you guess Mr Fox would have his tail shot off in Chapter 3 last week? Ouch! Listen to chapter 4 this week to find out what happens next!

 

This week we will read another poem from Crazy Mayonnaisy Mum by Julia Donaldson

 

Please photograph your work and upload it each day to Apostlesremote@infinityacademies.co.uk

Tuesday 

If you have any non-fiction books at home choose one of your choice and read it. 

 

If you want to read a new book then click the link below to read Pony For a Day. This is a non-fiction book but also a recount ( this is what we are focusing on In our English writing session this week) as the character in the book tells us about her exciting day at a stable

Tuesday Activity

 

Write down or tell your grown up 3 facts that you have learnt from the book you have read today.

 

You could always try discussing these questions as well , (which are found at the back of the book.)
