In our literacy sessions this half term, Year 5 have been reading the story ‘The Darkest Dark’ written by Chris Hadfield (former astronaut). 
 

We’ve learnt how, as a young boy, Chris was afraid of the dark but after watching the moon landings (1969) he conquered his fear of the dark and set him on a path to become future commander of the International Space Station. 


We’ve learnt how we can implement parenthesis into our writing to add extra information to our main clauses. 
 

Great Work Year 5!
