Class Reader

In class we have been reading 'The Lost Words', a beautifully written and illustrated nature book written by Robert MacFarlane and Jackie Morris.

Ask your child: How did the layout of the poem 'Raven' help the reader?  Can they explain what the difference is between a metaphor and a similie, and give you an example of both?
