This engaging and purposeful lesson is the fifth in a series of lessons that enable children to gradually build towards composing an effective, well-structured recount. This lesson focuses on helping children to vary their sentence structures, to produce interesting and imaginative compositions.

The eye-catching and comprehensive PowerPoint presentation (20 slides) guides teachers and children along the following learning journey:
-Knowledge recall - revisiting what children already know about recounts;
-SPAG starter: Identifying word types: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives and determiners
-Understanding that writing is more interesting and imaginative when writers vary the type of word that they open the sentence with (i.e. not always pronouns and determiners);
-Enhancing a boring, monotonous example by adding variety to sentence openers (the worksheet for this is provided, both in Word and PDF);
-Improving their earlier written attempts by following steps to increase the variety and quality of their sentences;
-Following a model example to develop variety and imagination within the next paragraph of their written compositions (a structure strip is provided, in both PDF and Word format, to help them to organise and sequence this section of their composition);
-Reflecting on their learning from across the lesson.

These lessons were originally created for children in lower Key Stage 2 (Years 3 and 4). The focus of the recount in these resources is a ‘journey’, but the resources have been made in a way that they can be easily adapted to your chosen topic/ subject matter.
