Description

In this unit, pupils read and explore the narrative text, 'The Wolf, The Duck and the Mouse'. They explore the characters, setting and plot and summarise and retell the story. Finally, they identify and discuss the key themes in the text.

This unit uses and builds on pupils' understanding of narrative, which was explored in the prior unit 'Yoshi the Stonecutter'. Pupils will broaden their reading experiences to a richer, higher quality text. They will explore some of the precise and ambitious vocabulary used in the text and build their understanding through summarising the story verbally. This unit prepares pupils to analyse a character in more depth, which will be explored in the future unit, 'The Planet in a Pickle Jar', a narrative written from a character's perspective.
