This engaging and thought-provoking double-lesson resource aids students in developing a secure understanding of the chapters 13 and 14 of Morris Gleitzman’s 'Once.’ In this section of the text, Felix and Barney go out in search of water, and the cellar is discovered by the Nazi soldiers.
The comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation enables students to understand the text through:
-Retrieving information;
-Analysing the writer’s use of language;
-Making informed predictions.
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.
This lesson has a particular focus on the writer’s use of language - in creating a sense of horror in Chapter 13 and in creating a sense of action and danger in Chapter 14.
There’s a lot in the session (19 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 year groups, depending upon the individual context of the school and students.
