The Firework Maker's Daughter- Teacher Instructions

The 'Firework Maker's Daughter' teaching pack, provided by KS2Gems, is a comprehensive resource designed to enrich the reading experience for Key Stage 2 students. The pack contains a plethora of ideas and activities tailored to each chapter of the book. Teachers are advised to select activities that are most suitable for their class's needs and that align with other subjects being taught. It is not expected for all activities to be completed but rather chosen based on their relevance to the sections of the book being read and the educational objectives at hand.

Flexibility is a key aspect of this resource, with the option to adapt activities to different parts of the book than initially suggested. Teachers are encouraged to use their judgement to integrate these activities at the most appropriate times during their teaching schedule. The pack is designed to be a starting point, and educators are welcome to add their own ideas to tailor the learning experience to the unique dynamics of their classroom. The pack also includes a guide to reading skills, with a reference sheet that maps these skills to the objectives of the English National Curriculum. Additionally, the website offers topic overviews that can complement the use of the book, such as a geography focus titled 'Eastern Promise,' and guidance on how to launch a class book effectively.
