Repetition for LA KS3

The 7th in the MRS SOAP creative writing series for lower ability KS3.

• The starter asks learners to read an extract from a story and then write the next paragraph based on what they have read.
• Feedback slide
• What is repetition? To check understanding, there are three images representing three fairytales: Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel and The Three Little Pigs. Ask learners if they can identify the fairytale from the image and if they know what key phrase is repeated in these stories.
• This is followed by a worksheet in which learners read four mini extracts and identify the repeated words/phrases. They then comment on the effect of the repetition.
• After this, learners write the opening of their own fairytale based on one of several image prompts. They then say what they would repeat and why and how they would continue the story. An example is provided.
• Review

Estimated time: about 1.5 hours.
