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.
I have put together 3 sheet connected with Global warming.
There is a’Yes to ’ and 'No to 'sheet . The second sheet is a Thesaurus of hopefully useful list of positive words to use. The third sheet is Poetry Aid in case the children want to try and write a poem about Global Warming…
