Maths Using formal methods for subtraction, can you complete these sums?  English  Read the story aloud, using good expression to read what is said. What five words could describe the shepherds?  What five words could describe the woman?  Which of the characters do you admire the most? Ouch! By Kevin Crossley-Holland  Five shepherds fell asleep under a tree. And in their sleep they sighed and stretched and tossed and turned and tied their legs into a knot. When they woke up, they didn't know which leg belonged to who. “I'm hungry,” said one shepherd.  “And I'm thirsty,” said another.  All five of them were thirsty and hungry, but they were unable to stand up.   “What's wrong with you, men?” shouted a woman on her way to the well:The sun's up and you're still on your backs.'   “We can't stand up,” said the shepherds. “We don't know which leg belongs to who.”   “What's it worth?” asked the woman....
