This Goodnight Mister Tom Chapter 8 Comprehension for Whole Class Guided Reading includes differentiated questions and activities based on chapter eight of the novel by Michelle Magorian. We recommend using this novel with Year 5 & Year 6. In this chapter, the children go to the village hall to find out what will be happening with their schooling. Zach, George, Carrie and Ginnie are all in the big class as they can read and write. Willie admits to the teacher that he can't read or write and so he is put with some other older evacuees in the 'baby' class. He is deeply embarrassed so Tom agrees to help him learn how to read and write. The other children come over in the even to reassure Will they still want to be friends with him. Willie is overwhelmed by this as he has not had friends before.
