Author Study/Class Reader

Our author for this half term is Michael Morpurgo. In class, we have been reading My Friend Walter and Friend Or Foe.

This week's learning question from the Blooms questions at the back of children's reading records should be taken from the Questioning section. Remember to highlight the question once chosen, so you choose a different question next week.

The Autumn reading challenge begins this week (launched in Friday's assembly). It is attached at the bottom of the page. Good luck children and keep reading!
