This engaging and thought-provoking double-lesson resource aids students in developing a secure understanding of the chapter 8 of Anne Holm’s ‘I Am David.’ In this final chapter of the text, David almost runs into trouble but is aided by King the Dog. He then completes the final leg of his miraculous journey.
The comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation enables students to understand the text through:
-Retrieving information;
-Inferring and deducing hidden meanings;
-Summarising events from 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. The lesson also includes an answer key for the retrieval questions, and model answer ideas for the more detailed responses. A storyboard template is also provided (in both Word and PDF) to support the main deeper thinking task.
There’s a lot here (18 slides filled with questions and activities) so I would recommend breaking into two lessons. The lessons are suitable for students in either upper KS2 or lower KS3, depending upon the individual context of the school and students. I originally used them with year 6 children.
