Interview English Reading Activity Year 3/4 Class. Based on looking at the front cover and title of the book Journey by Aaron Becker. I have another 30 minute Reading Activity interview lesson for the same year group based on the same book in my shop I completed this activity for a Year 3/4 as part of an interview for a teacher job. I had 15 minutes but this activity would be better suited for 20 minutes and can be adapted for a 30 minute reading lesson or longer. Included in this lesson activity is: Lesson presentation with the “L.O- To predict what might happen using the title and illustrations” Word Bank with key words Sentence Stems Lesson Plan for the activity Last slide of the presentation is the front cover without the title that can be printed for the “what can you see activity?” Worksheet for the activity “what do you predict the story is going to be about?” and then “now you have seen the front cover, can you add more detail to your predictions?”

Lesson used as part of an interview suitable for a Year 3/4 class. I received great feedback for this lesson. A prediction lesson using an illustration from the book ‘Journey’ by Alex Becker.

I used one image from the story due to the time I had in my interview but this lesson could be tailored to include more illustrations depending on the time that you have.

A 2 page PDF file that can be used when the children come to write their non-chronological report. I have aimed this resource at my year 2 English class but you may wish to use for other year groups as appropriate. On the 2 page PDF, there is space for a title, subheadings, and pictures as well as smaller boxes for did you know? facts.
