Please don't worry when you get the part where I share the screen with you for Sky Boy. Although I didn't press 'new share' so you can't see it, the teachers will show you what it looks like. I haven't missed off anything too vital. Apologies.
If you want to try reading these yourself, just turn off the sound and then you won't hear the man's voice reading them.
