The Iron Man

This e-unit contains three versions of a text, catering to the varying levels of students in the class. Students will read over 'The Iron Man', an extract from a science fiction novel, before working through a series of questions. The four sets of questions provided will orient students with the reading, address the key skill of deductive reasoning, increase students understanding of words and why they were used in the text and give the students the chance to evaluate the text. Students will speculate the tone of the reading, as well explore the writers intentions. Answers are also provided for each question to assist the teacher with marking.
