We completed an exit pass to demonstrate our understanding of the events in our class novel - 3 things that happened, 2 things we learnt about a character and 1 question we still have about the story! 📚🐛🍎 #literacy #classnovel #summary #mainideas #comprehension #understanding

We used the scene from yesterday to create a storyboard detailing the main events. We used pictures, speech, description and phrases from the text, as well as the thoughts of characters! #classnovel #literacy #reading #mainidea #summarising #understanding #comprehension

We read a scene from Chapter 32 where Bradley is surrounded by the other boys. We practised and performed this scene in groups using the text to see what the characters say and do. #literacy #classnovel #drama #perform #dialogue #reading

Who said what? We worked in pairs to write statements that could have been said by characters in our class novel. We then took part in musical shares, meeting up with another pair and trying to work out ‘Who said what?’ #literacy #classnovel #comprehension
