Plazoom has teamed up with Beano to create comprehension activities based on one of its well-loved comic strips. The comprehension questions will develop pupils’ skills when answering questions that involve retrieval, inference, vocabulary and sequencing. A writing prompt is also included with each resource pack.
In this resource, pupils will read a story featuring Beano Town’s top spy - Dangerous Dan. Dan is desperate for an electric scooters and, when he receives one at spy HQ, he rushes off with it before he has been given the instructions. Pupils will answer questions about the story, then write a set of instructions for Dangerous Dan, telling him how to operate the scooter.

Pupils should check that they understand what they read by
- checking that the text makes sense to them ... checking the meaning of words in context.
- drawing inferences such as inferring characters feelings, thoughts and motives for their actions, and justifying inferences with evidence.
Pupils should plan and discuss their ideas for writing.
