A trip to a museum takes a dark turn, in a KS1/KS2 literacy story.
This is a stimulus for writing a horror story KS2 English. It can be shown on an interactive whiteboard and used as a lesson starter. A boy reads about dinosaurs in his storybook, then sets off to the museum to see the dinosaur skeletons. There is a sense of restlessness in the museum today; it feels like something important is about to happen. The old dinosaur fossils seem to be glaring down at the boy. He can almost imagine them coming to life… The clip should be of particular relevance to teachers who are focusing on story setting, plot or the adventure story genre. It could be used in a cross-curriculum project on dinosaurs.
