Adventure stories KS2 resource

Adventure stories are always popular with children. They hinge around common patterns such as rescuing a kidnapped person, finding hidden treasure or in some way defeating bad people such as burglars or robbers.

This story by Pie Corbett involves a flashback. Loiter with the story for at least two or three days, if not longer. This will help the less confident internalise the patterns.

Make sure pupils have heard the story being read and read it to themselves as often as possible. Display it on the interactive whiteboard so that it can be seen by everyone. Then deepen understanding with the activity ideas in this download.
