This morning in Literacy we have been learning about The Life of William Shakespeare. We had 15 minutes to read and remember facts about his life. We then used this information to create a group poster. Which facts can you remember?
Facts about Henry VIII - I know he had 6 wives but I would be very interested to read some more facts. I'd love you to let us all know what you have remembered from what you did together today. I'll check again tomorrow to see if anyone does.

William Shakespeare invented words such as 'puke'.... Not King Henry VIII. Who can remember any other facts about his life? Please share them.
