An Inference-based lesson exploring language and interpretation, using Shaun Tan’s text ‘Broken Toys’. This goes with AQA’s Paper 1 revision for Question 2.
The idea is to discuss more in comparison to writing - you can use mini-whiteboards instead of exercise books as the students enjoy writing on it and then rubbing it clean to start something new. However, it can be easily adapted if you wanted more evidence of written work.
There is a mixture of individual, pair and group work throughout and focuses on the short story in three sections (one page at a time). Students are encouraged to think for themselves and arrive at interpretations and inferences - some really good discussions have come from this lesson.
Currently made for a 90-minute FE lesson, but can be easily adapted.
