This whole class reading session aims to develop children’s comprehension skills through reading and interpreting the opening two chapters of Katherine Rundell’s ‘The Explorer.’

The resource pack includes the extract needed and a clear and well presented PowerPoint, guiding the teacher and learners through the various activities. The reading is followed by a series of activities aiming to develop children’s retrieval, explanation, inference, sequencing and summarising skills. A vocabulary check helps to secure children’s understanding of any new or unfamiliar language.

The tasks are comprised of quick-check questions, solo thinking, pair/ group discussions and deeper thinking activities.

The session is best suited for children in years 5-6, although with minor adaptations it could feasibly be used with slightly younger and older year groups.
