This engaging and thought-provoking double-lesson resource aids students in developing a secure understanding of the chapters 9 to 10 of Roald Dahl’s 'Matilda.’ The chapters covered in these lessons are ‘The Parents’ and ‘Throwing the Hammer.’
The lessons are guided by a comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation, and enables students to understand the text through:
-Retrieving information;
-Inferring and deducing hidden meanings;
-Summarising the key events of the story so far.
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. There is also a success criteria helpsheet (provided as Word and PDF) included to assist with the end-of-session creative task.
There’s a lot in the session (19 slides in total) so I would recommend breaking into two lessons. The lessons are most suitable for children in key stage 2, (they were originally used for those in years 4 and 5).
