Our festive week long resource “An unexpected guest at Christmas” is based on the beloved John Lewis Christmas advert to help infuse learning with the magic and charm of the holiday season. It is designed to engage and inspire learners in writing their own Christmas narratives while developing essential language skills, with a focus on alliteration, subordinate clauses, and descriptive vocabulary.
It includes a five-day PowerPoint presentation that helps to encourage learners to explore their imagination while incorporating thoughts and feelings into their writing - creating memorable descriptions to capture the holiday spirit. All resources needed are included, such as the story board, planning sheet, and border paper etc. It also includes a separate PowerPoint dedicated to enhancing learners sentence structure using colourful semantics. This PowerPoint can be used with a separate group, as an additional intervention, or integrated into the whole class lesson. With model answers provided, teachers can save time while still providing valuable guidance to their learners.

This comprehensive English resource is based on the popular novel “Sky Hawk” by Gill Lewis and provides a week’s worth of engaging lessons. Using colourful semantics, the resource focuses on improving learners’ sentence structure and writing skills. The cycle of work leads to the creation of a diary entry as Iona, with a particular focus on developing three essential skills including; fronted adverbials, consistent use of past tense, and subordinate clauses (this can differentiated). Additionally, the resource includes necessary documents, including the model text based on Sky Hawk, and information sheets on ospreys, which is a key element in the story. As it is based on using colourful semantics, it’s an excellent option for intervention groups. Don’t miss out on the whole class version at a Year 5 level, also available in our store!
Weeks 2 and 3 of the Sky Hawk English lessons are available as separate purchases. To make things easier and more cost-effective for you, I am also offering a bulk purchase option for all three weeks.
