English: Recounts

We will be investigating the features of recount writing and planning and writing a letter from Mary Anning to Annie Philpott, recounting the discovery of the ichthyasaur.

Reading

Please support your child on their reading journey by listening to them read their school book as much as possible, and by sharing other books - whether its cuddling up for a bedtime story, listening to an audio book on a car journey or discussing favourite authors over tea.

The children on colour-band books will be given the opportunity to change their reading books on Tuesdays and Fridays. However, please ensure that these are in school EVERY DAY as they may be asked to read to an adult at any time. 

Our class reading book is 'The Tear Thief' by Carol Ann Duffy
