Maths

Writing:

 

We would like you to think about the book, 'The Boy in the Tower' and think about what is going to happen next. He has met two new characters, Dory and Obi, who is the caretaker. He has also seen someone flashing a light from Gaia's tower block. Who could this be? Are they trying to send a message? Is there anyone else in the building? Why hasn't their tower collapsed?

 

We would like you to write about what Ade discovers and try to answer some of the questions.

Please refer to Spellzone for this week's spelling list to learn.
