Empathising with a character: Kensuke's Kingdom

A PowerPoint presentation on empathy based on the text of Kensuke's Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo.
This presentation encourages the class, or a guided reading group, to think about how the author has described Michael's feelings. The thoughts and feelings of Kensuke are then discussed to provide a contrast. Children record their ideas about the characters' feelings using thought bubbles.
Extracts from the text are included for children to consider and discuss. Page numbers refer to Heinemann New Windmills edition.
