The Mummy's Curse - Session 6 - Prediction

In the intriguing sixth session of "The Mummy's Curse," an air of suspense surrounds the fate of the central characters: Luna, Konstantin, Aidan, and Evelyn. The group finds themselves ensnared within the ancient confines of Hatshepsut's tomb, leading to a cliffhanger that prompts students to engage their imagination and predictive skills. The challenge set forth is to foresee the course of events that will enable these characters to escape their entrapment. This exercise not only stimulates creative thinking but also encourages students to consider narrative structure, character actions, and the possible twists that could emerge in the unfolding story.

The session is designed to inspire children to delve into the world of prediction, a key comprehension skill in reading. Students are invited to put themselves in the shoes of the protagonists, pondering the myriad of possible scenarios that could lead to their liberation from the tomb. Will they uncover a hidden passageway, decipher ancient hieroglyphs that reveal a secret exit, or perhaps outwit a supernatural force linked to the mummy's curse? By hypothesising the characters' next moves, students actively participate in the storytelling process, enhancing their engagement with the text and fostering a deeper connection with the narrative's progression.
