Lord of the Flies Vocabulary
All the tricky vocabulary from Lord of the Flies in one PowerPoint.
Support all levels of reader with these clear vocabulary slides featuring photographs and flat icons to aid understanding. These can be displayed on a board or on pupil devices as your read together in lessons, or used for pupils reading the novel at home. Can be used for pupils to annotate unfamiliar words in their copy of the novel as a pre-reading activity.
An absolute game-changer if you find yourself stopping to explain words as you read aloud to the class.
I’ve used a dyslexia-friendly font and background on these slides.
70 slides in total.
Non-Fiction Text Types Scavenger Hunt
Through completing the scavenger hunt, pupils will learn about the features of non-fiction texts. It is suitable for pupils to work on their own, in pairs or in groups, and may be used as either a pre-teaching or revision activity. Put together with KS3 in mind, it would also be great for an injection of fun at KS4.
The lesson in designed to be a high-engagement, independent and challenging activity for pupils, but low-prep and no-marking for teachers.
The premise:
Detective Amanda Lord, a seasoned investigator with a love of stylish accessories, finds herself the victim of a theft… her beloved fedora hat has been stolen. When she finds a ransom note, your class must work hard to solve a series of clues to crack the code and find her missing hat.
