Literacy planning year 6 Tuesday by David Wiesner

couple of lesson plans and some worksheets.

Sample: Share L.O and STS with the children.
Introduce the cover for the new book – what do you predict will happen in the story? I predict that…….because
Why do you think the book is called Tuesday? Has the time got anything to do with it? I think that it is called Tuesday because….

Give children images taken from the book – what order should they go in? encourage groups to discuss the order as a group – explain that there is no right or wrong answer because they are predicting.
Invite children to share the order they chose and justify their choices.
CT model writing the story using the order they have chosen and time connectives. Model THINK, SAY, WRITE, CHECK method for writing. Remind children of noun phrases to add interesting detail. Encourage MA children to use complex sentences.
Resources:
Tuesday images
Sentence starter flash cards (differentiated)
Time flash cards
Images for books
Share LO and STS.
What do we know about the story so far? What are the main events? Children to share their work from previous lesson.
Watch:

How has the order changed from what you predicted? Arrange key images from the story in chronological order on the working wall.
Language starters to retell the story – ‘So far I have discovered that…’ ‘First, then, after that…’ Whilst x was… y was…’What is inference? Where have you seen it before? Why is it important with this text? Establish that it has no words so we must assume what is happening to tell the story.
Use the PowerPoint to tell the story as a class.

Share L.O. and vocabulary – where are we on the learning journey.
Ink Waster – Jotters – 2 minutes to write down everything you remember about the story.
Key Questions
When did it happen? Where did it happen? Did anyone see anything?

Display an image – Can you explain what is happening? Partner talk using language ladder openers to support – children to share with class.

Give groups of children images from the story and time connective sentence starters – children to sort the pictures into the correct sequence and use time connectives to retell.

Explain written task.
What is a noun phrase? What is an adverbial phrase? How would these be applied to this piece of writing?
