Summer 2
English.
This term our writing will be based upon the story Lila and the Secret of Rain by David Conway and Jude Daly.
This is a lovely story about a young girl who lives in a village in Kenya. For months the sun has burned down on Lila's village. It is too hot to gather, firewood, or weed the garden.
Without rain the crops will fail. Lila is so worried that when her grandfather whispers the secret of rain to her, she sets off to talk to the sky herself.
We will be writing descriptions of characters and settings, writing our own stories, creating poems and developing our vocabulary by using a thesaurus to find synonyms.
Maths.
We will focus on solving problems using numbers and measures.
