On Thursday the 27th of October we were treated to a podcast of Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam by Tracey Corderoy on BBC Scotland. This was a really exciting opportunity to see the Author of these books and listen to her telling the stories. We have been focusing on using expression in our reading and this was great to see how she brought the story to life using different voices and tones.
Tracey was joined by Steven Lenton who was the illustrator of the books. The pupils were treated to a master class in drawing the character Sam.
We have had great fun learning about the characters and we are looking forward to enjoying the books in class over the next couple of months.

Sounds like a lot of fun and a great learning opportunity!
