In English this week we will be looking at exploring characters from different stories and finding new vocabulary. At the end of the week, decide which character is your favourite!

After reading, discuss new and interesting vocabulary which you have read, e.g. edition, rearranging, newfangled, sum, stir, janitor, retreated.

Write down the new vocabulary and use www.wordhippo.com to explore similar words (synonyms) to help you understand them.
