What are we reading this term?

The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe

In this well-loved classic, we meet a family of children, evacuated to their strange uncle’s house which proves to be a great place to play hide-and-seek. But then the children discover the wardrobe is a portal to another world, a place in perpetual winter ruled by The White Witch. Just when all seems lost, Aslan – the Great Lion - returns, bringing with him a sense of hope and safety and changing the lives of the four siblings forever.

Parents, it is also helpful if you listen to your child read at least once or twice in a week just to check they are reading properly. Below there is a list of reading prompts questions to support you and your child reading at home.
