Why isn’t England part of the Roman Empire today?
Was King Arthur real?
How and why is my local environment changing?
As part of our English sessions and our reading time we will be using the texts Oliver and the Seawigs and Arthur and the Golden Rope. We will use these to inspire and create our won writing including our own non-chronological report, diary entry, poetry, setting and story writing.
