PSHE FOCUS

Chapter 2 talks about changes and how they make Lottie feel. 

The story describes big changes like this...

"She didn’t mind change but she didn’t always understand it, and sometimes it was painful and sad, and it made her body ache and her eyes numb."

DT FOCUS

Send in a photograph and it'll feature in a special blog post on the website. You can send them by emailing greenbanddruid@outlook.com

Think about using junk like recycled cardboard to make a pretend book cover. You might get creative with materials like felt! What colour will the book be? How will you add the lettering for the title of the journal?

​POETRY FOCUS

“Thinking carefully certainly pays,
tell me, how many months of the year
have 28 days?”

The stairway sets a difficult riddle for Lottie to solve. Can you come up with your own riddles that could replace this one?

​Try them out on somebody and see if they can guess your answer!

Chapter 5 will be released on World Book Day (3rd March)
