A few weeks back in the Blue reading group, Ocean, Max, Tarquinn, Cilla, Lesane and I were reading about a book called Holding my breath By Melinda Szymanik.
It was about a boy who did not know how to breath properly when he is swimming.
We were learning to answer inference questions and write it on a google doc.
