The Highwayman Alfred Noyes Teaching Resources Powerpoints Worksheets
Assorted great planning and ideas for the superb poem The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes.
Great powerpoints.
Great ideas and worksheets.
Plenty to get your teeth into and reassemble.
Sample planning :
Introduce children to ‘The Highwayman’. Explain that it is a poem that tells a story involving a highwayman.
They will need to listen carefully as the poem is read, as it uses a lot of ‘old-fashioned’ language. The poem was written by Alfred Noyes and was first published in August 1906.
Read the poem to the class and then children talk with partner about what they have found out about the story.
Come back together and discuss the story told through the poem. How can children tell that this poem was written some time ago?
Make notes on the board about character and story.
Make notes about the Highwayman’s appearance.
Recap on the techniques we use in fiction writing (and make clear again that poetry is a type of narrative) to describe the scene/setting to the reader. What is our main objective? To create an image in the reader’s mind. We do this by using the senses – recap.
Re-read just the first three lines of the poem, ask children to close eyes and visualise the setting as I read it again. Talk about the language and the kind of pictures it created for them.
The wind was a torrent of darkness upon the gusty trees,
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
The road was a ribbon of moonlight looping the purple moor,
Can the children see a technique which has been used in each of the three lines? Metaphor. Discuss.
Children to pick out words which evoke the senses:
Darkness, gusty trees, ghostly etc
Recap what we have found out so far about ‘The Highwayman’. What makes it a narrative poem?
Explain children’s final writing outcome. They are going to use the opening part of ‘The Highwayman’ as their inspiration and they are going to write their own poem based on Bess, the Landlord’s daughter.
Recap on last lesson – what is a simile and what is a metaphor?
What are the three nouns which Noyes describes using metaphor? The wind, the moon and the road. Children are also going to use metaphor to describe these, they are then going to use simile to describe Bess waiting for her love.
Explain that today’s planning session is going to focus on the metaphor part of the writing outcome.
Model how to write a metaphor by first mind mapping each item.

year 6 Literacy Fiction Genre To plan, draft, write and improve an engaging short story
4 main weeks’s work.
Plus powerpoints and resorces.
Great for year 6.
Sample planning.
Learning/Writing outcome: To plan, draft, write and improve an engaging short story in a particular genre using appropriate language and organisational features.
Introduce the words ‘fiction’ and ‘genre’. TTYP and discuss the meaning of the word ‘genre’. At this point, introduce the new and improved writing journals where children can make notes during lessons, can jot down words they wish to magpie, jot words that they have generated but which aren’t suitable for the task in hand and can jot questions/things they are unsure about. Explain that I will prompt to use these for the first couple of days but then children need to become more independent. Prizes for most effective use!
Ensure the children understand the difference between fiction ‘narrative’ and non fiction ‘non narrative’.
Activity One
Come back together and do class mind map for working wall.
Ask children to think of any titles of books which could fit with any of these genres. Ask children to discuss their preferences and discuss our preferences with them.
Activity Two
Talk about how they sorted the books in activity two. What clues were you looking for? Talk about words which suggest different genres. Explain activity three.
Activity One
In lit books complete quick mind map of different types of fiction genre.
Activity Two
Children to work in table groups. Children to be given a wide range of fiction books from class/school library.
Children to sort the books into fantasy, historical, science fiction and mystery by scanning the book, looking at the front cover and reading the blurb.
Activity Three
Children to have a selection of pictures from books (front covers and insides) and blurbs from a variety of fiction books. Ch to decide which genre they think they book comes from and justify their opinion by highlighting the key words or annotating the pictures.
SEN: () to work as a group on this task.
MA: In pairs. With teacher to work with ‘Quality Question Marks’ (both groups).
HA: Independently.
Plenary:
What have we learned? What is narrative? Non narrative? What is a genre? Name some genres of narrative? What is your favourite? Why? Least favourite? Why?
Does this link to visual literacy (i.e. do films and TV programs split into genres?)

Big Write Big Writing Teaching Materials Lessons Planning Creative Writing
During my time as a teacher, I enjoyed doing a Big Write or Big Writing.
I’ve gathered all my materials together.

Each group will discuss and write ideas for each section.

Children will write ideas, words on post-it notes.
If this was a full lesson:
Put together all the different groups’ ideas to build a storyboard for the class myth.
