Enter the Heroes, Villains & Side-Kicks; Dragons, Fairies & Goblins

It's time to go on an adventure...won't you come with me?

​If your child struggles with comprehension, re-telling a story or grasping a moral or fable, the Literature Factory program is for them. With individual, one on one support and attention, your child is taught the necessary skills to fully appreciate and comprehend what they are reading. 

Our older students are also taught to think critically, and to question the information they are receiving. Is it biased? Does it position you to think a certain way? Do the literary elements persuade you to like one character over another?

​During our sessions, our tutor will read to your child, enabling them to truly listen to the stories and choose which parts spark their imagination. Using  drawing and the art of story telling, we will bring stories to life with your child. We will teach them the skills to:

• truly understand a story;
• empathise with characters;
• interpret the moral and purpose of a story;
• learn how to apply stories to their own lives.

Because your child will not be focusing on the skills required to decode a story, they will be able to truly focus on comprehension.  This will improve attention to detail. Throughout the term we will:

• transform characters;
• tweak plot lines; 
• tinker with details to see how they change the emotion, direction or ending of a story;
• create spin off characters and stories,
• draw our own interpretations of book elements;
• transform works of literature into other genres to enhance understanding.
