Today’s reading lesson looks at an old favourite ‘Funny Bones’ by Allen Ahlberg. This is a story that lots of you will know. In this lesson you will be thinking about what the characters say and how to retell the story in the correct order. You will also be planning your only scaring skeleton surprises!

Fantastic answer Ritaj. I agree with you a King needs to care about other people. It’s not all about shiny crowns and fancy palaces!
