This morning in year 5 we introduced the new class text to the children. The children were given different snapshots of the front cover and had great discussions about what they could infer and predict about the book. They eventually worked out that the book was called Pig Heart Boy.
I loved listening to the children’s discussions and hearing them apply their scientific learning from yesterday’s expedition lesson as we read and discussed the first two chapters. Silent discussion was used to reflect on chapter one and the children were fab at reading and agreeing with others comments. It is not often Crew Jackson can have a discussion without talking!
