This resource focuses on the concept of circular narratives, particularly as illustrated in 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe'. It describes what a circular narrative is—where stories begin and end in the same place but show character transformation throughout the journey. The learning objective is to help students understand how the chapters of the book connect to create this structure. The document includes interactive elements such as a KWL (Know, Want to know, Learned) chart, activities to trace the Pevensies' journey through Narnia, and reflection questions to analyze the impact of the circular journey on character development and the overall meaning of the story.
