I created and used this planning with a mixed ability year 5 class. The children thoroughly enjoyed Street child and wrote brilliant work from it. Within these series of lessons, the children will practise using skills such as: relative clauses, noun phrases, expanded noun phrases, fronted adverbials, adverbial phrases, adverbs, a range of sentence structures, modified noun phrases, informal language, formal language, apostrophes & parenthesis. Street Child is a fantastic book which is excellent for children to compare life today to the Victorian era.

(Blue = higher ability, Orange = middle ability & Green = lower ability.) *Multiple grammar starting activities. *High level vocabulary focus *A wide variety of writing opportunities discussed (the children will have opportunity to write a informal letter, a descriptive recount & a formal letter. *A wide range of grammatical skills covered.
