Tombful of Trouble - Session 3 - Predicton

In the third session of "Tombful of Trouble," a key question is posed to engage students' predictive skills: What will Agatha do about Ada taking the ring from the jewellery room? This question prompts children to delve into the characters' personalities and motivations, encouraging them to use inference based on the narrative so far to forecast the potential reactions and decisions of Agatha. By contemplating this scenario, students are invited to actively participate in the storytelling process, developing their understanding of cause and effect within the plot, as well as honing their ability to anticipate character actions and the consequences that might follow.

The task is designed to stimulate imaginative thinking and comprehension skills. Students are given space to express their thoughts on how Agatha might handle the situation with Ada and the taken ring. This exercise not only aids in enhancing their analytical abilities but also provides an opportunity for creative expression. As they articulate their predictions, students are able to demonstrate their grasp of the story's dynamics and character interactions. The session serves as an interactive bridge between reader and text, fostering a deeper connection with the story and its characters.
