This engaging and thought-provoking double-lesson resource aids students in developing a secure understanding of the chapters 1 to 2 of Emma Carroll’s 'Secrets of a Sun King.’ In this section of the text, Lil’s grandfather is taken to hospital, and she is both mystified and captivated after opening the package containing the ancient Egyptian jar.
The comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation enables students to understand the text through:
-Making predictions;
-Retrieving information;
-Inferring and deducing hidden meanings;
-Summarising the key events of the chapters.
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’s a lot in the session (20 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).
