This half-term's objective is all about resilience and WOW - look how many ways you are all showing us how to be resilient.
Some of you are increasing your speed at TTRockstars so much - you won't believe what a difference this will make! Some of you are doing painting, gardening, baking, writing, music.... Some of you are reading new, exciting books and some people who find reading tough are digging deep and practising more than ever before. Some of you are up at 7 on the dot. Some of you have your work in every day like clockwork. Some of you find it hard to find a quiet place to work or have had birthdays or have had obstacles but you stay resilient and keep carrying on.
When you think back on this week and remember how magnificent and resilient you were, what will YOU remember? And if you're not sure YET... today is your day!
Read loads, practise lots and have a terrific weekend!

ENGLISH - Creative Story Writing
'The Greatest Library'
Today, we would like to give you the opportunity to showcase your creative writing skills using the picture above as a prompt.
To get your creative juices flowing, think about the following questions:
Here's a thought...if you were to take out every single book from a library, would it still be a library?
Your task is to write a short story entitled, 'The Greatest Library', using this picture as a starting point. Don't forget to try and include some of the grammar techniques that you have practised this week, e.g. introducing a list with a colon. If you are struggling to get started, you could choose one of these openings to get going:
We can't wait to hear your stories!
Additionally, please complete on lined paper, or in your home learning book, pages 30 - 31 from your CGP reading book (Non-fiction). If you have a different colour book, please continue working through the book in order.
