Full half term writing unit Y5/6 - Oliver Twist (4 writing outcomes)

This writing unit allows for opportunities for four independent writing outcomes all based on content from the classic fiction story, Oliver Twist, including:

1.Diary entry
2.Setting description
3. Extended narrative innovation
4. Non-chronological report

The lesson plan and resources included are suitable for Y5/6 children. Included in the pack is a full unit of lesson plans including lesson starters, a modelling Powerpoint to support all of the lessons in the unit as well as the lesson resources. Apart from adding your groups onto planning and adding any specific needs required by your children or the use of your TA, this is a pick up and go unit.

Key skills: Expanded noun-phrases, ing openers, modal verbs, complex sentences with relative clauses, blending description. action and dialogue elements and subject/verb agreement.

To make life easier, the lessons on the plan are numbered and then this is correlated with numbered Powerpoint slides and the numbered resources. Anything to make teaching life easier!

As this was planned for a Y5/6 class, some lessons have two versions of the resource (Y5 and Y6) so that you can tailor/adapt the learning to meet the needs of the children in the class. Enjoy!
