This week Primary 6 have been doing lots of reading. We have been developing our fiction reading skills with Mrs McCulloch, reading Friend or Foe by Michael Morpurgo. This book is set during WWII. With Miss Anderson we have been reading Fortunately the Milk by Neil Gaiman. This book is set in lots of different historical times and features a time-travelling hot air balloon that was invented by a genius stegosaurus! We also are learning more about non-fiction books through our group reading. These non-fiction books cover a wide range of topics (from growing pumpkins to learning more about the Vikings). Finally we will also be reviewing the Scottish Book trust Awards shortlisted books – the first is called Pyrate Boy.
Miss Anderson and P6
friend or foe is a good book
Super Readers indeed P6! I am so pleased to hear that you are exploring a wide range of texts. Maybe you could share some of your favourites with another class?
