This engaging and thought-provoking lesson is the first in a series of three lessons designed to accompany the class reading of Satoshi Kitamura’s 'Stone Age Boy.’ This lesson covers the opening section of the text (up to the words ‘I saw them…’).
The comprehensive and colourful PowerPoint presentation enables students to understand the text through:
-Making predictions;
-Retrieving key information;
-Inferring and deducing hidden meanings.
The lesson contains a range of retrieval, vocabulary, inference and deeper thinking activities. The PowerPoint presentation (16 slides) guides students through each stage of the learning. For the deeper thinking task, children use their skills of inference and empathy to write a diary entry from the perspective of the narrator. In addition to the instructions in the slideshow, a helpsheet/ success criteria is provided to guide the children’s creative compositions (in both Word and PDF).
There is a lot of content here, so I would suggest perhaps breaking this up over two lessons. The resources are most suitable for students in lower KS2 (I originally used these resources with a year 3 class), but may be adapted for other age groups, depending upon the individual context of the school and students.
