Y5 Friday Video – The Book of Hopes

Happy Friday Year 5!

It’s the end of another week already. We’ve been so impressed with your independent learning this week. Keep looking out for ideas and possibilities over the weekend.

Today I am going to read from an amazing new resource called The Book of Hopes. You can find it online here.

I am going to read Katherine Rundell’s (who wrote The Wolf Wilder) wonderful introduction and then a great poem called Balcony Picnic by Michelle Magorian. She wrote a book I really loved called ‘Back Home’. Have any of you read it?

A few people asked why I told you about baking but didn’t bake myself – so next week look out for an action-packed baking video. Wish me luck!

Best wishes from the whole Y5 team
