A FREEBIE comprehension unit for the The Grizzly Bear chapter of "The World's Worst Pets" by David Walliams.

The pages in this unit are part of a Novel Study-

THE WORLD'S WORST PETS by David Walliams

The Unit can be followed chapter by chapter, with no extra preparation or planning required by the teacher. The responses in the unit have been planned and arranged so that your students will practise a wide range of comprehension strategies in context. It has been designed to promote thinking and comprehension. Tasks can be completed independently, collaboratively or alongside a teacher.

All Book Bandit Novel Studies have been designed with student engagement at the forefront. In responding to the book, students will be required to think both within and beyond the text. Children learn best when they are having fun! Even better that they are learning the love of books at the same time!
