This whole class reading session aims to develop children’s comprehension of the opening chapters of David Walliams’ Gangsta Granny. The resource pack includes the extract needed (the first chapter of the text - the second chapter is also included). This is followed by a series of activities aiming to develop children’s retrieval, explanation, inference, prediction and summarising skills. It also contains a vocabulary check immediately after the extract is read to clarify any unfamiliar/ difficult language. The tasks are comprised of quick-check questions, solo thinking, pair/ group discussions and deeper thinking activities. The session is best suited for children in years 2-4, although with minor adaptations it could feasibly be used with slightly younger and older year groups.
