There is a full comprehension section, planning section and a fast finishers section at the back. There is the opportunity to watch a short video of the original fairy tale, which is available here: https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/en/short-stories/goldilocks-and-the-three-bears This link is also included in the pack. Please see my example images of the booklet.
