Welcome to another Friday Book Blether!

I hope you have all been enjoying lots of great books this week. I have started reading The Explorer by Katherine Rundell – thank you for the recommendation Rhona! I am reading it with my son which is nice because we can chat about the story as we go – a bit like a family book group  (great idea Joe!).

The thing I am loving about The Explorer is how Katherine Rundell manages to transport you to The Amazon through her amazing descriptive language…the sights, the smells, the sounds…you feel like you are there!

So, inspired by The Explorer, this week we are going to think about story setting:

• Where does the story take place?
• How does the author describe the place?
• What can you see, hear, smell, feel as you read the story?

You can tell us about a book you’re reading at the moment, or a book you have already read.

Look forward to hearing from you!

 

I liked this book because in it there are so many amazing and unexpected things happening. This is a crazy book where there is a little girl and her parents die in a car crash and her auntie wants to inherit Saxby hall. But the little girl (whose name is Stella) would inherit it and aunt Alberta will do anything to get it off of her.

 

Hi Everyone

Hope you are all doing well. Looks like you’ve all had a fun fortnight of sports activities and kitchen science! I have loved reading all your posts and looking at your photos!

A Friday maths task has been added to the p3-5 learning pages if anyone would like to give it a go.

Hopefully see some of you in the Book Blether chat around 10am!

Have a great Friday and a fab weekend!

Good morning everyone,

Have a great day and a safe weekend! Missing you all lots.
