Free Verse Poetry - Space

(4)
A Powerpoint focusing on a free verse poem, covering four lessons (could easily be extended to five). <br /> The lessons are as follows:<br /> 1 - Looking at a good examples, and extracting the success criteria (lines, lack of punctuation, similes, alliteration) The PP presumes a general knowledge of these. <br /> 2 - Shared Write lesson, extracting from the good example and developing ideas as a class. This mainly focuses on the sky at day. <br /> 3 - Use of images and videos to build ideas for three verses: one you could you see in the night sky, how you would travel to space, and what you would find. <br /> 4 - Writing. <br /> <br /> The PP mainly uses images, and would be ideal as a starting block for any literary unit focusing on space.

Persuasive Writing - General Election Leaflets

(6)
A literacy topic of four lessons focusing on persuasive writing. This topic looks at four parties' leaflets, with a child-friendly approach to politics. The main point of disagreement is how much playtime children should get. There is a 'moderate party' which demonstrates the appeal of a middle-of-the-road approach, whilst drawing attention to the more extreme views of the other parties, who want to abolish/dramatically extent break. The fourth party is a 'bad' example, which doesn't highlight any policies. An activity could look at improving this party's leaflet. <br /> <br /> The PP includes a word of the day, focusing on unfamiliar words within the topic, and sentence level work focusing on brackets and repetition. The first lesson extracts the success criteria from the examples, the second lesson is hot-seating a party leader, and the third lesson is planning/writing. The PP is quite open for modifications. Great for 'British Values'.

The Invisible Monster - Descriptive Writing

(0)
A powerpoint for aiding an extended writing piece for descriptive writing. It focuses on similes, sentences of three and rhetorical questions, with good and bad examples to back up each.These can be used to build up towards the three paragraphs of 'What does it loo like?&quot;, &quot;What does it eat?&quot; and &quot;How does it move?&quot;. The success criteria is left empty for the children to discuss. <br /> <br /> A fun way to prepare for the writing/to reflect on it is to have a child read out their description and another child draw it. It can lead to some interesting results!
