Description

This mini-unit is a companion to the Roald Dahl book, The Enormous Crocodile. Using this resource, students have the opportunity to dig deeply into the details, plot structure, and word play in the story. Adding an additional layer, students will also be presented with additional related texts (nonfiction and poetry) to explore and compare.

Fabulous resource which I used to introduce a narrative unit where students had to add an extra chapter or event to an existing story.

This was a huge hit! An online PDF of The Enormous Crocodile can easily be found online. I used this for students who were learning remotely. I couldn't have been happier with this resource! Highly engaging!! I paired it with The GATE Way's Fantastic Mr. Fox for a Roald Dahl unit that was very memorable for my students!!

My 1st grade enrichment group loved the story and were extremely challenged when going through the novel study pages. They became frustrated at times, but easily rose to the challenge and persevered in working along with other like minded peers.

We love this unit for first graders. It’s definitely challenging, but it’s a great intro to Roald Dahl and novel study! We are so glad your students were challenged and enjoyed it!
