"Iron Man" by Ted Hughes

Here are a few examples of the work that was completed during our lessons on "Iron Man."

PLOT GRAPH:
We constructed a Plot Graph and then the students made their own in their  workbooks. I then had several students draw their graphs onto the class graph. As a class we discussed the results of the graph and what they meant. The students than wrote a sentences or two onto their graph to summarize the results.

IRON MAN PREDICTIONS:
After reading the first chapter of Iron Man, students wrote what they predicted would happen in the novel and why they thought this. I also had them write down if they would be disappointed if something happened or didn't happen in the book and what this might be. After completing the book the students then went back and reviewed their prediction and wrote if they were correct or not.

DRAWING IRON MAN:
As a class we read the first two pages of the novel. We then reviewed how the author described Iron Man. The students then drew a picture of Iron Man and label his different parts using the language used by the author.

IRON MAN COMIC:
After reading each chapter the students drew the main events in a comic. They used the technique of Omneopodea, which is what the author uses through out the novel.

IRON MAN VENN DIAGRAM:
The students constructed a Venn Diagram to compare and contrast the main characters in "Iron Man"
