LKS2 Greatest Football Player Discussion Writing Unit | Digital & Print

This resource is a LKS2 discussion-based text writing unit discussing who is the greatest football player of all time. The unit has been split into four separate lessons which will take students approximately 40-50 minutes each. The Google Slides activity is ideal for distance learning and perfect for students in Year 3 or Year 4 learning about football, physical education or world sport.

The first lesson involves students retrieving facts from informational texts about Pele, Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona, and typing these on to an included fact sheet. In the second lesson students need to use these facts to write three to four paragraphs about the individual players. In the third lesson students need to use prompt sheets to write up an introduction and a conclusion. In the final lesson students need to check their draft paragraphs for mistakes before typing up their work using the template provided.

NO PREP is needed!
