LC: To draw inferences around character’s thoughts, feelings, actions, motives and justify with evidence from the text.
Let's re-read the poem.
What do you know about Macavity?
Tell me more…
Your task: You will now take on the role of chief detective and write some detective notes on the crimes Macavity has committed.
Use the pictures below to help you infer what his crimes are.
What would he be thinking or feeling about each crime?
What would his motive be for each crime?
Teacher model.
Macavity is stealing fish in the night. He looks like he is tip-toeing so he doesn't wake anyone up. I think he is feeling brave because he looks like he is showing off the fish and he thinks no-one will see him. I think his motive/reason for stealing the fish is because cats like fish and he may eat them for his supper.
Your turn
Adapted:
Discuss what crimes Macavity has committed.
Now write these down.
