This three-week unit of work is based on the text Pig Heart Boy by Malorie Blackman and the Talk for Writing model with a baseline assessment- planning- imitation- innovation- independent application- final assessment.
The pupils will learn what the features of newspaper reports are and how to identify bias. They will look in detail at a ‘model text’ and will learn this off-by-heart to help them reproduce similar sentence structures and vocabulary in their own writing.
Through teacher modelling, they will embellish the class version on kidney xenotransplantation before writing their own independently using the techniques they have learnt.
Lesson 1- Have a go writing own newspaper report
Lesson 2- whole class guided reading on the model text (Pig Heart Boy based)
Lesson 3- Looking at how cohesion is created
Lesson 4- Features of newspaper reports
Lesson 5- ‘Boxing-up’- looking at how the model text is structured
