I have created 3 simple colourful harvest word searches fruit/salad/ vegetables -answers included

I have created 15 pages of multiple choice questions, with a few homophones, on The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe which I hope will prove useful. In June 2022 I began tutoring a 10 year old English 11+ work. I decided to introduce her to the Narnia stories for the comprehension work. To encourage the child to read I took the famous The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and decided to create some multiple choice work. I have very much linked the work to the book so most of the answers are to be found on the page references I have given to most of the questions. The child was set the homework of reading a chapter(s) and in the tutorial answering the questions - using the page reference as an aid if required. I also wrote the material in TES for T’he Chronicles of Narnia - short crosswords with word search- which has been very well received. Where it says see special sheet it is referring to that material.
