The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Scheme of Work

Fully resourced scheme of work on The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Aimed at Year 8/Key Stage 3. Approximately 14 lesson scheme which includes opportunities for both homework and two assessments: one formative piece on a detective (exemplar included) and a summative piece on a choice of either (1) a setting/backdrop to a murder, (2) a search/chase sequence or (3) a meeting of two adversaries.
The scheme is based around a single powerpoint so the pace of delivery can be managed more easily. An accompanying Study Booklet contains extracts from a range of Sherlock Holmes stories with two examples covering each of the four focus areas. The booklet also includes Simon Armitage’s poem, About his Person and sophisticated language prompts to help with creative writing.
