Roald Dahl’s second autobiography ‘Going Solo’ is a dynamic KS3 text that provides a high number of learning opportunities in both reading, writing and creative tasks. I have taught this text a number of times in the last twenty years and I have used this specific resource (revised in 2022) to lead my teaching in class, as a homework assignment and even as a distance learning resource.
This dynamically presented 13 slide PowerPoint presentation is most suitable for a year 6 or year 7 mixed ability group. This lesson contains a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. This is a complete resource with no further work required from the teacher. Enjoy!
