This engaging and thought-provoking lesson resource aids students in developing a secure understanding of the chapters 13 to 16 of Roald Dahl’s ‘The Twits.’ The chapters covered in these lessons are ‘Mr Twit Gets a Horrid Shock’, ‘The House, The Tree and The Monkey Cage’, 'Hugtight Sticky Glue’ and ‘Four Sticky Little Boys.’
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;
-Anaysing the writer’s use of language.
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 session ends with a thought-provoking creative activity.
There’s a lot in the session (18 slides in total) so I would recommend breaking into two lessons. The lessons are most suitable for children in lower key stage 2, (they were originally made for children in year 3) but they could also be adapted for slightly older and younger year groups.
