Mortal Engines complete unit for teaching late key stage 2 or key stage 3

This is a complete unit on the engaging text of ‘Mortal Engines’ for late primary or early secondary students. There are 260 slides here which is ideal for online learning with tasks and sample student answers to refer to. Students are encouraged to do both creative writing tasks, grammar and spelling tasks throughout and alongside the close reading of the book. Characterisation, setting, report writing, diary writing, letter writing, close analysis, writing a guide for the hunting ground, writing a scapheap challenge for making the Jenny Haniver…just some of the tasks. There is a lot of work here and should keep a class busy for at least six weeks, covering a great variety of English skills and targets.
