This engaging and thought-provoking series of lessons are designed to accompany class reading of Kate Cunningham’s 'Vlad and the Great Fire of London.’
Three double-length lessons are included - one each to cover the beginning, middle and ending of the text.

The comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentations enables students to understand the text through:
-Lesson 1: Making predictions, retrieving, inferring and deducing;
-Lesson 2: Retrieving, inferring, making links with context;
-Lesson 3: Retrieving, inferring and summarising key events.

Everything needed to teach the lessons is included within the resource packs, including worksheets and templates for the ‘deeper thinking activities.’

The resources have been tried and tested in classrooms, and have enabled children to develop a comprehensive understanding of the text and its key meanings. The resources are most suitable for students in upper KS1 (I originally used these resources with a year 2 class), but may be adapted for other age groups, depending upon the individual context of the school and students.
