This KS2 War Horse Chapter 21 Whole Class Guided Reading Pack includes differentiated questions and activities based on chapter twenty-one of the popular novel by Michael Morpurgo.

In the final chapter, Albert is devastated to realise that Joey won't be coming home with him. The old man comes to talk to Albert with the Sergeant and the Major, and explains that Joey came to stay with him and his granddaughter during the war. He also explains that Emilie had died, so he was trying to find the two horses she had loved to remember her by. The old man has been told about Albert coming to France to find Joey, so he offers to sell Joey back to Albert on the condition that Albert keeps the memory of his granddaughter Emilie alive.

This pack contains colour-coded questions to ensure clear differentiation, as well as differentiated challenge tasks focussed upon brackets, book reviews, paragraphs and opinions of the story.
