The Mummy's Curse - Session 1 - Reading Comprehension

In the first session of "The Mummy's Curse" reading comprehension, students delve into the intriguing world of Luna's adventures. The session kicks off with a question about why Luna has penned a letter to the reader, setting the stage for a personal connection to the narrative. As the session unfolds, learners are asked to identify who is responsible for the creation of the Time Train, a pivotal element in the story. They also explore the living arrangements of characters Konstantin and Aidan, and discover the identity of Luna's chaperone.

Further questions probe into the interactions between Luna and notable historical figures, such as why Arthur Conan Doyle expresses his gratitude towards her. Students consider Luna's perspective on the British Museum, a location central to the unfolding story. They investigate a peculiar incident that takes place outside the Museum and interpret the meaning of the phrase 'a sight for sore eyes' as it relates to the narrative. The session also introduces the concept of an 'Unwrapping', a term linked to the story's Egyptian theme. Finally, the students are challenged to condense their understanding of the session into a concise summary, using no more than 50 words, to demonstrate their comprehension and ability to synthesize information.
