This KS2 Who Let the Gods Out? Reading Resource is for Whole Class Guided Reading and includes differentiated questions and activities based on the third chapter of the popular novel by Maz Evans.
In this chapter, the story is set in Elysium: an immortal realm above Earth. Virgo, a member of the Zodiac Council tries to volunteer for the task of delivering a golden flask to Prisoner Forty-two on Earth. Pisces ignores Virgo's pleas to go, but none of the other council members want to do it so she steals the flask and goes anyway. Unfortunately for Virgo, she doesn't actually know who Prisoner Forty-two is, or where to find them.
This pack contains colour-coded questions to ensure clear differentiation, as well as differentiated challenge tasks focussed upon figurative language, punctuation, adverbs and prefixes.
