**Updated with new graphics and Google extension
This 25-page resource has been designed to be done alongside other Outcomes from the Mission to Mars unit, but can also be done independently of the other learning outcomes.
The outcome is designed for the children to write their own narrative story about a Mission to Mars with a focus on using shifts in formality (with flashbacks). The idea is introduced with a drama activity before the children research space travel and plan their story.
Planning lists and checklists are included for planning and editing.
Digital resources for editing and sharing on Google Classroom and Seesaw available with download.
