In Year 6, we spent the week enjoying the book 'The Bear and the Piano'. Our English learning was centred around putting ourselves in the bear's position. We considered the bear's decision about moving to the city and wrote a letter from his perspective to other bears. We created artwork that was inspired by an image from the book where we thought about what other people value in us. 

Ultimately, the children were able to spend a significant percentage of their week reading. This was pushed further by the reading challenge that was completed at home and at school. The Year 6 teachers were delighted with how well the children engaged with the week and we're looking forward to some wonderful reading as we move through Spring and into the Summer term!
