Good morning. Before you check out today’s activities, here are yesterday’s answers.
If you missed a maths video/lesson or want to revisit something, here are the previous posts.
As always, you don’t have to do these activities at a set time or in a set order – that’s all up to you. Also, you don’t have to be doing work all day! Feel free to send in some pictures or videos of some of the other things you have been doing at home.

Reading
If you’ve missed any of the chapters or want to hear them again, here’s a link to all the previous posts since Easter.
Here is the 2nd part of the third chapter of The Graveyard Book. It starts just after yesterday’s ended.
Here’s some questions about what you’ve just listened to:
1.) At the start of the chapter, what did Bod go to the Owenses for?
2.) What was the Owenses’ response?
3.) What were the names of the three creatures who woke Bod up?
4.) How quick can ghouls move?
5.) What were the ghouls going to do to Bod?
Writing
Continue with your writing task from yesterday.
