David McKee: Author Study Activities for Key Stage 1 (Author
Studies Series S.)
Author: Sally Elding
Synopsis: This series is designed to
help primary teachers plan focused sessions on the work of popular,
well-loved and valued authors, both classic and contemporary. Each book
contains a range of activities for use directly in the classroom,
covering: biographical information about the author; a review of the
author's work and a summary of the major themes in his or her key texts;
key language features of the author; frameworks to help children
analyse, evaluate and compare texts, and to develop opinions of authors'
works; ideas for writing modelled on or developed from key texts;
speaking and listening opportunities, drama and role play ideas; and
references to video, CD-ROM, websites and ICT activities. Inside each
book is a full-colour pull-out poster illustrating the work of the
author, which also has a set of challenges on the back. David McKee is
an author and illustrator, creator of Mr Benn, King Rollo, and the
ever-popular patchwork elephant, Elmer. Building on children's enjoyment
of the characters and their adventures, this book presents activities
which focus on narrative structure, character develop ment, settings and
themes. Most importantly, the activities are designed to make learning
about stories as much fun as reading them. Games and activities include:
fortunately/unfortunately and chain of events - exploring cause and
effect; comparing plots - using a matrix to order information; looking
for clues about Elmer - building a character sketch; mapping feelings -
exploring character development; time talk and Isabel's diary -
understanding setting, sequence and relationships between the two;
making a story map - recognising picture and context clues; comparing
the video to the written text; and text detective work using extracts.
