There is also a fantastic new resource on the BBC bitesize website where new lessons are uploaded daily in English, maths and other subjects. These are all sorted into year groups.

Today’s (Monday 20th April) Year 5 Literacy lesson contains a video of Dick and Dom from CBBC reading an extract from George’s marvellous medicine by Roald Dahl. See if you can spot any similes and metaphors as you listen to the story.

Stay safe everyone and we can’t wait to see you all in school soon.
