Whether it has been reading classic literature such as The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy to hiding behind the sofa whilst watching the Daleks on TV with Doctor Who or reaching for the tissues with films such as E.T. there are few topics that can inspire children’s (and adult’s) reading and creative writing more than SPACE.
If you found the first two blocks of lessons of value, then I hope you make the small investment with the final block of lessons designed for Y5/6 children: the 37 PowerPoint slides provide the children with ideas for planning and writing their own space adventure story as well as dealing with common areas for improvement such as structure, pacing of ideas, combining the elements of action, description and purposeful dialogue.
Shared writing opportunities are included for the planning and writing of two stories which the children can also develop themselves.
Week 1 can be found at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12830206
Weeks 2 & 3 can be found at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12834290
Week 4 can be found at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12834686
These three blocks of lessons will provide you with plenty of ideas as well as resources for a unit of work on science fiction lasting four weeks.
Any reviews or feedback on the content of the lesson and any improvements that could be made would be greatly appreciated.
