Eagles’ Book Blog - 23.04.21 Welcome to our first Book Blog! We will be sharing
what we have been doing in class, top tips for
reading and reading recommendation for different
year groups.
In our class this week, we have been working on
noun phrases and past perfect tenses relating to
our novel: ‘Kaspar Prince of Cats’ by Michael
Morpurgo. The book ‘Kaspar the Prince of Cats’ is
related to the story of the Titanic which makes it
even more interesting!
As a class, we are all enjoying the twists and turns
in the books that we read at school. There is a big
twist in ‘Kaspar’! The majority of our class are
enjoying our class reading book. We asked for a
few peoples’ perspectives and 12 people out of the
14 we asked liked this book and only 2 didn’t!
That’s really good!
TOP TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE RIGHT BOOK FOR
YOU AND FOR UNDERSTANDING THE BOOK THAT
YOU ARE READING:
Make sure to read the blurb before you start
reading the book, just in case you aren’t
interested.
An acronym can help with comprehension and
in understanding for example in the word
vipers …
V stands for vocabulary
I stands for infer
P stands for predict
E stands for explain
R stands for retrieve
S stands for summarise
Read a chapter every night.
Reading helps you relax.
Try new genres, you never know what you will
like!
