Hey You Down There!

We have started to read the next short story in our unit on short stories. We will go back to Lamb to the Slaughter by Roald Dahl once we have completed this current story, but as we read I would like to encourage you to look at any similarities you can find with Lamb to the Slaughter.
We will start on Tuesday (2nd October) by looking at some questions we discussed orally today about the opening of this new story.

When we move to written answers remember we are interested in full sentences with as much detail as possible and quotations from the text to support your comments.

The questions we discussed today:

Can you speculate about what kind of story you think this may turn out to be?

When and where do you think this story might be set?

What do you already know about Calvin?

How would you describe the relationship between Dora and Calvin?

Can you make guesses about what may happen next?

(Thanks to the English and Media Centre for their KS3 units of work.)
