A Literary Leaf for Arthur and the Golden Rope

 

KS: Lower KS2

Year Group: Year 3

Literary Theme: Magic & Wonder

Author(s): Joe Todd Stanton

Overview and Outcomes:

This is an 12-session Literary Leaf for Arthur and the Golden Rope by Joe Todd Stanton which covers all aspects of the Lower Key Stage 2 content domains.  Throughout the sequence children will be provided with opportunities to develop skills of retrieval, inference, summarising and sequencing through taking part in class discussions, completing practical activities and answering questions. They will also explore the meanings of new vocabulary in context and be able to draw links with other areas of the curriculum, for example the study of the Vikings in History. 

Synopsis of Text:

Imagine a vault so cavernous that it could contain all the world's greatest treasures and relics, from mummified remains of ancient monarchs to glistening swords brandished by legendary warriors. Who could be in charge of such a vault and how did he come into possession of such a unique collection? Who is...Professor Brownstone? Children will love the sense of adventure created through the brilliantly vivid illustrations alongside learning facts about this particular period in history.

Links to Curriculum areas, other Literary Leaves and Planning Sequences:

The First Drawings by Mordicai Gerstein (Y3 planning sequence in the Literary Curriculum) would be an ideal text to teach this alongside.
