An engaging resource based on the opening of Cirque Du Freak. Differentiated, attractive and suitable for a range of interests and abilities. This will take at least 2-3 lessons and you will need a copy of the opening of the book. The unit begins with differentiated reading questions, including PEE paragraphs. The unit ends with pupils writing the following chapter/s of the novel. Could be used with Year 7 and 8 pupils too.

I used this in an observation lesson with great results. It is well differentiated and has a nice mix of reading tasks for all abilities, leading into a fun writing task. You will need to find a copy of the book as you need the opening extract. Pupils loved this lesson and it resulted in some interesting pieces of writing. Since returning to school, many pupils have told me that they read the book over the summer.
