Key learning points
- The purpose of the resolution is to resolve the problem encountered in the story and allow readers to reflect.
- In the resolution, Hogarth leads the Iron Man to a metal scrapyard and he no longer needs the farmers' machinery.
- In a resolution, exaggeration is often used to convey the positive emotions felt by characters.
- Using a range of synonyms for simple verbs, adjectives and nouns supports exaggeration.
- ‘Show and tell’ language conveys the Iron Man’s emotions.
Common misconception
Children may find it difficult to identify or generate appropriate exaggerated synonyms.
Model the use of a thesaurus to identify appropriate exaggerated synonyms and create a shared bank of appropriate vocabulary for the children to use when writing their notes.
