A wide range comprehension questions on each Stave of the novella with differentiation to help you find the right level of difficulty for your classes. The previews should give you an idea about the quality and relevance of the questioning. I recommend collating together to make a text book for students to work through.
A lesson to guide students on how to write a film review of Stone Cold by Robert Swindells.
The writing frame on the PowerPoint is differentiated which works well as a carousel activity so that students can write up the review first in a group before working independently.
There is also a graphic organiser to help students plan their film review.
As I am sure you are aware, the film is available on youtube.
2 lessons/PowerPoints.
Lesson 1 has carefully selected annotations followed by 13 comprehension questions based on the annotations.
There is also a starter activity involving an 8 minute clip from the film ‘The Not Dead’.
Lesson 2 recaps the first lesson before looking at how to improve grade 3 paragraphs by adding zoom ins and deeper inferences. The final activity asks students to compare the poem to Prelude, War Photographer and Bayonet Charge. To help with this, students are provided with matching quotations and a suggested basic writing frame.
