Project X: Journeys: Incredible Journeys

by Claire Llewellyn, Claire Llewellyn

In Hamster Rampage a trip to London goes horribly wrong when Ant's pet hamster accidentally grows to giant size! Max and Tiger go on a camping trip to the beach and decide to enter a surfing competition in Riding the Waves. And in Trouble in the Rockies a family holiday turns out to be more of
an adventure than they'd planned! Also in this cluster, find out about some amazing animal journeys and go on a trip round the body in the two non fiction books, Incredible Journeys and Human Body Adventures.

Each book comes with notes for parents that highlight tricky words or concepts in the books, prompt questions and suggest a range of follow-up activities. The Journeys Guided Reading Notes provide step-by-step guided reading support for each book in the Journeys cluster, together with guidance
about comprehension, assessment for learning and vocabulary enrichment. Hands-on follow-up activities and cross-curricular links are also provided for each book.

I liked the salmon bit best because the salmon where leaping and tasted the water to find where they where born. I read it in year 2.
