Our book for the term is Shackleton’s Journey. This book is a unique visual re-telling Ernest Shackleton’s landmark expedition crossing the Antarctic from one pole to the other. This links with our learning in our History and Geography topic, which is all about the polar regions. Like Shackleton, we will be writing a persuasive advert for future explorers to embark on a trip of a lifetime to Antarctica, which we then turn into a real life advert using the digital editing skills that we have learnt to use on the iPads. We will write to inform others of the animals that life in the polar regions by creating non-chronological reports. Next, we will learn the writing skills needed to recall events that have been experienced through diary writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
