T - Shaped Reading.

W.A.L.T: We are learning to read and summarise ideas about journeys.

T-Shaped Reading Unit- Journeys
Write answers to these questions after you have read each text.


These words may help you to reflect on kinds of journeys:  journey, quest, exploration, voyage, trip, trek, excursion, expedition, pilgrimage, mission.



What kind of journey
has taken place?  
Explain.
What was the
purpose of this
Journey?
What challenges did
the character face?
Kensuke’s Kingdom.
A voyage because it
is a long journey by
sea.

To experience what it
would be like to live
on a boat and travel
the world.
Facing the big storms
while traveling on the
sailboat.
Washing up on an
island and trying to
find somewhere to
sleep, food and water.
Iris and Dogstar.
This journey is also a
voyage because it
takes days to get
from place to place
by water.
To go fishing and
travel to Noumea
and spend time
with their family.  
They didn't get much
sleep. The rough seas
and getting sea sick.
Not so normal.
It is a mission
because it is
travelling from planet
to planet.
To travel to Earth and
check the resources.

A cow ate Normals
spaceship.
At the end of the story
Normal got squashed.
People were being
mean to him about his
name.
Underground Explorers.
This journey is an
exploration.
To go underground
and prove that the
bulmer cavern is
bigger than they
thought.
Sleeping in small
spaces and being in
the cold.
