The Witch's Tears -Narrative, Mystery 4 wk unit -plans, PPTs, creative writing, grammar exercises

Four week unit using this lovely mystery book for lower juniors. The children learn how an author builds up a spooky atmosphere and they write a long mystery story of their own over the weeks. They 'discuss writing similar to that which they are planning to write in order to understand and learn from its structure, vocabulary and grammar'. Grammar exercises on adjectives, plurals, speech punctuation, apostrophes and similes. Other activities include writing a witchy recipe, a book review and designing a book jacket. Everything is differentiated with support for lower ability children and it is all fully editable for you to adapt for your class. If you download this and find it useful, please write a review - or if it needs improving. More of my resources can be found in my shop:
