Cudworth hooked into their new Guided Reading text “When the sky falls” by Phil Earle by investigating evidence that gave clues to the plot of the story. We had to take shelter as the Air Raid Siren went off.

Year 5 Reading Text….
Some children have brought their reading book in today and unfortunately it is the wrong one.
The Viking Boy is the correct book, The Viking Boy: The Real Story is incorrect
If you have any further queries please speak to Mrs Latham-Warde or Mrs Wray
