Victorian Workhouses- Discussion text plan and modelled write Year 5/6

This is a weeks worth of English lessons on the theme of Victorian Workhouses. It is aimed at Year 5 or 6 pupils. I have included a full weekly English plan, smart notebook slides for the week, a planning sheet for the children to use to plan their writing and a high quality modelled write which covers a lot of the main elements Year 6 children are expected to include (a range of sentence types, subordinate clauses in different positions, advanced language).

This would be best taught after/ alongside reading the book ‘Street Child’.
