This engaging and thought-provoking lesson is the last in a series lessons designed to accompany the reading and promote children’s comprehension of Roald Dahl’s ‘Esio Trot.’ It covers the end of the text (pages 50 to 63 in the Puffin version of the story).
The lesson is guided by a comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation, and enables students to understand the text through:
-Retrieving information about the events and characters in this section of the story;
-Inferring and deducing hidden meanings, including key inferences about Mr Hoppy and Mrs Silver’s marriage;
-Summarising and sequencing the main events in the text.
The sessions include a range of retrieval, vocabulary, inference, explanation and deeper thinking activities. A clear, colourful and comprehensive PowerPoint presentation guides students through the learning. A clear, well-designed template is also provided for the storyboarding activity.
The lessons are most suitable for children in upper KS1 or lower KS2, depending upon the individual context of the class - they have been tried and tested in the classroom with both year 2 and year 3 children.
