Winter's Child Writing Unit

A one-stop-shop writing unit based around the book ‘Winter’s Child’ by Angela McAllister. All the resources you need are included in the download.

The writing outcome is a recount with a variety of sentence structures and expanded noun phrases. The sentence structures are differentiated by ability group:
SEND: Expanded noun phrases
Consolidate: Coordinating conjunctions.
Core: Subordination.
Extend: Relative clauses.

This unit was originally taught to Year 5 but it could easily be used from Year 2 - 6, due to the accessible nature of the original book, incredible illustrations and the grammar covered.
