(0)
What’s included: *Lesson plan (2-2.5 weeks of lessons) *Main teaching SMART Notebook presentation (76 slides) *Accompanying worksheets and activities, plus a writing checklist, Non-chron WAGOLL and writing planning sheet Learning objectives covered: *Make inferences - reading comprehension using film (The Saga of Bjorn from The Literacy Shed) covering questions strands: true or false, put in order, retrieval, vocabulary and inference *Punctuate a paragraph correctly (dictation) *Design a Norse mythical creature *Adverbials of time, place and manner *Write a non-chronological report *Identify and use pronouns (including possessive pronouns) Vary openers using DADWAVERS Plan and write a Norse myth/saga Side note: We are studying Vikings in history and also began reading Viking Boy (Tony Bradman) as a class read before starting this unit of work (some parts - very few - were censored/missed out due to violence! I always read ahead in advance of reading aloud to the class) but overall they absolutely loved it. Additionally, it helped increase subject-specific knowledge about different Viking topics such as Viking way of life, Gods and the Valkyries.

A fun and engaging lesson for upper KS2 but easily adaptable for lower KS2. Tried and tested in Y6 (upper mid-low ability).
