In term 6, we will be investigating and exploring adventurous stories, which link to our Brazil topic ! 

We will be inspired by 'The Explorer' by Katherine Rundell. 

Fred, Con, Lila and Max’s plane is on the way to Manaus when it falls out of the sky. Now, lost in the Amazon rainforest, they must figure out the basics of survival: water, shelter, food.

Do they wait for rescue, or find a way to rescue themselves?

As they get bolder and explore further afield, they see more traces of another human inhabitant, too – and then they find the map. Who was here before and where will the map take them?

 There are themes of friendship, the environment and survival, and it is completely, utterly wonderful. Pure adventure.
