The Wild Robot Novel Study

By Sarah Hodgson

The Wild Robot novel study for Years 3–4, built on The Writing Revolution and aligned to the Australian Curriculum v9, US Common Core ELA and the UK National Curriculum. A 10-week unit with a combined teacher and student booklet, lesson plans, modelled responses, differentiation tips for every activity, and built-in catch-up weeks. Print or project, with no extra prep. Every chapter follows the same activity sequence: key vocabulary, a summary sentence, because / but / so, sentences and notes, a Single Paragraph Outline, and a full paragraph with revision. The routine stays the same, so students spend their thinking on the book, not on working out what each new worksheet is asking. Roz, a robot washed ashore on a wild island, adopts an orphaned gosling and slowly goes from outsider to mother and neighbour. Nature, technology and what makes a family, in short chapters that hook reluctant readers, with easy links to science topics like living things, adaptation and life cycles. Made by Sarah Hodgson, teacher librarian, not AI. I read every word of every book and write every question and model response myself.
