A complete Year 6 English novel-study unit for Pip Harry's moving contemporary novel August & Jones. Jones Kirby is slowly losing her sight, and with her bookish new friend August Genting she makes a 'Must-See List' of things to experience while she still can. The unit pairs two scaffolded, scannable lesson plans (character & empathy; theme & the author's message) with vocabulary work, literal–inferential–evaluative comprehension, and an extended written response with a four-level rubric and full answer key.
Students will:
• Explain how an author builds empathy for a character facing a hard situation
• Identify a theme and explain the author's message
• Write a structured response supported by evidence from the novel
A ready-to-use unit plan, supplied as PDF, editable Word (DOCX) and PowerPoint (PPTX).
