This term, our class novel is Podkin One-Ear by Kieran Larwood, and we have loved diving into the magical world of rabbits, warrens, and adventures! The story has already captured our imaginations, and we can’t wait to see what happens next.
We have also been practising one of our key reading skills: retrieval. This means finding information directly from the text to help us answer questions. As part of this, we looked carefully at the description of the Bard and used words from the story to describe him. Afterwards, we drew our own versions of the Bard, bringing the character to life with the details we found.
Help at home: Choose a character from a book, find words from the text to describe them, and use these words to help you draw the character.
