Do you do Talk for Writing in your school? Are you a Year 2 teacher? If the answer is yes, then look no further! I’m sharing 3 weeks worth of planning of a fiction unit for a warning talk based on Little Red Writing Hood. Yes you heard correct, 3 weeks of planning! This is the entire unit. There are several resources to go with the planning, all of which are editable to suit your class. This resource would provide a great chunk of your planning and ultimately save you lots of time. The planning is based on Pie Corbett’s text of Little Red Riding Hood.

This is a 3 week unit based on a fiction, wishing tale called The Magic Shell. It would fit in nicely in the Spring term or at the start of the Summer term because the toolkit stretches the more able children helping them to achieve greater depth. Toolikit - inverted commas, different words for said, question and exclamation marks. Week 1 - Immitation Children orally rehearse the story the story of The Magic Shell, they work on the toolkit for the unit and box up the story to learn the structure. Week 2 - Innovation - The Magic Stick children learn an innovation version of the wishing tale. This pack includes the innovated text so you don’t need to invent on yourself. Children work on spotting the toolkit within the innovation and have the opportunity to innovate their own wishing tale under the guidance of the teacher. Week 3 - Independent Write Children box up their own wishing tale and spend the week writing their tale. This pack includes a detailed 3 week plan which notes for scaffolding for different levels and children on the adpapted curriculum. It also includes powerpoints for the toolkit and some worksheet reosurces. It includes both texts for the innovation and immitation. All resources are editable.
