Originally produced to support a Puffin Virtually Live webcast for schools, this resource aims to help primary classes explore the book The Christmasaurus by Tom Fletcher.
The 23-page document contains three lesson plans with the following learning objectives:
Lesson One
- To ask and answer relevant and appropriate questions
- To identify question words and use the correct punctuation when writing questions
- To consider characters’ thoughts and feelings using the information given
Lesson Two
- To identify and generate rhyming strings
- To write a rhyme
- To read a rhyme aloud
Lesson Three

Each lesson is supported by a different extract from the book and a set of accompanying resource sheets, including printable cards, writing templates and instructions for pupils to create their own Christmas cards and doorhangers.
