KPE Episode 395: "The Lost Watch"

Makalita interviews Jessica about Phillipa Werry's very popular book, "The Lost Watch".

This is a great story about about things going wrong when someone had forgotten to "be in the right place, doing the right thing, at the right time"!  And the courage it takes to own up when you have done the wrong thing.

KPE Episode 378: "Wonderful Wheels Day"

Alexandria and Makelita have been reading "Wonderful Wheels Day" by Philippa Werry and Alice Bell. Read this taster below, listen to the podcast, and tell them what you think. Maybe you have read this book too and can leave your opinion below...



Henry’s teacher Miss Grace wants to reward room 4 for their excellent work
and behaviour. If all the students keep trying hard they will get a Wonderful
Wheels Day at the end of the term. On Wheels Day you get to bring inline
skates or skateboards or bikes to school and ride them around the playground
while everyone else is in class. Everyone in room 4 is excited – except Henry.
Henry is dreading Wheels Day. He can’t ride a bike or use rollerblades. The
trouble is he has no balance. Henry is worried that he will make a fool of
himself in front of all his friends and plans to come up with a way of getting out
of Wheels Day.

"Wonderful Wheels Day" by Philippa Werry and Alice Bell is podcast by Makerita and Brooklyn from Room 15. This book is a sequel to The Lost Watch, which we have podcast in the past.
Henry finds himself in another awkward situation. Last time he'd taken Dad's new watch to school when he knew he shouldn't. 
This time the school is to have a day where all the students are allowed to bring their wheels to school, whether bike, roller blades or skateboard. Henry has a brand new pair of roller blades and is the envy of his friends. But Henry never mastered using them and now Wonderful Wheels Day is about to reveal his embarrassing secret.

Check out this synopsis:

KPE Episode 115 "The Lost Watch"

"The Lost Watch" by Philippa Werry and Alice Bell.
This podcast is presented by Tiana and Kayla from Room 17. Both girls are Year 6 students.
This story is about a boy who takes his father's birthday watch to school and loses it.
That would be bad enough, but Henry lets his baby sister take the blame for it. When the watch turns up Henry has to find a way to return it to Dad without letting on that he was the one who took it....
Tiana enjoyed the story, but she thought that the way Henry let his baby sister take the blame was pretty sad. See what you think when you read the book....
