This engaging and thought-provoking double-lesson resource aids students in developing a secure understanding of the chapters 1 to 2 of Morris Gleitzman’s 'Once.’ In this opening section of the text, Felix believes that his parents are coming to take him home from the orphanage. Instead, the officials arrive and begin burning books in the orphanage, to the despair of the nuns.
The comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation enables students to understand the text through:
-Making predictions;
-Retrieving information;
-Inferring and deducing hidden meanings;
-Linking the text to its context.
The sessions include a range of retrieval, vocabulary, inference, explanation and deeper thinking activities. A clear, colourful and comprehensive PowerPoint presentation guides students through the learning.
There’s a lot in the session (20 slides in total) so I would recommend breaking into two lessons. The lessons are most suitable for students in upper KS2, but may be adapted for other age groups, depending upon the individual context of the school and students.
