This is a 60-page complete English unit based on the amazing book “Great White Shark” by Claire Saxby.

This is a unit of work I created to support the teaching of the Stage Two Science unit “Living World”, which requires students to reflect upon life cycles. Great White Shark is a perfect text to support the teaching of this unit.

This unit has everything required to teach your reading program for a week, including independent group tasks.

This unit of work Is part of a much larger unit, focussing on the texts of Claire Saxby. Students examine three animal-based texts and use this as a mentor text to create a hybrid text of their own.

Included in this unit of work is:

  • all curriculum links, both ACARA and NESA. English curriculum links are included, as well as HASS/HSIE.

  • a detailed lesson guide, outlining everything you need to teach the unit. This is a step-by-step daily lesson plan, with work samples, tips and suggestions and more.

  • embedded oral language prompts, based on Great White Shark.

  • a comprehensive shared reading supporting slideshow, containing lots of visual supports. This includes comprehension questions (both literal and inferential, and text-to-self).

  • a full-colour background to the text, “The Great White Shark in Australia”

  • eight high-interest literature centre task cards, based on Great White Shark. These are designed to be engaging and fun with a high degree of student choice, so as to allow for independent work. Tasks incorporate areas such as research, designing, the Creative Arts and more. There are also imaginative, informative and persuasive written tasks based on Emu.

  • Additional focus lessons - vocabulary, language, predicting and more.
