What a great book to start our English with! Lewis Carroll has such a great imagination.

Share your thoughts with me.

Hi everyone,

What do you think of The Indian in the Cupboard so far?

Who can find out more about the Iroquois tribe? Did you know that each longhouse was named after a bird or animal?

The native Americans have symbols and the turtles is the most important one because it represents strength and patience. Who can find out what other symbols there are? Maybe you could make up some of your own symbols and create an alphabet. Then you could have a secret code with your friends.

Can’t wait to start our new topic and learn all about the American states and tribes. I’m so excited! What do you already know?

Enjoy Easter everyone and we look forward to seeing you soon!
