Ghost

Term 4 has started with a hiss and a roar and we have jumped right back into learning. On our Reading taskboard, we have a new rotation that links to the book Mrs Naden is reading to us every day.
This term we are reading Ghost by Jason Reynolds. It is about a boy called Ghost (his real name is Castle Cranshaw) who impulsively challenges an elite sprinter to a race..and wins! An Olympic medalist track coach sees he has natural talent. The thing is, Ghost has something else too: a lot of anger, and a past that he tries to outrun. We are only up to Chapter 4 so far and it is intense!
Our Reading tasks vary; some are drawing, some are Minecraft, some are research, some are Lego, some are word meanings, plus lots more. You might see these tasks on our individual blogs throughout the term.
