A plan for Y2 and top end of Y1.
This is a 3 week Fiction unit of work based on T4W using a skills ladder and modelled text. If you don’t know this story, it is a really good one!
There are resources included to help with the teaching and delivery of this unit of work. I have also included flipcharts with various screens to save you time!
I also have a Non-Fiction unit of work available on my TES shop so check out my other resources.
This unit is perfect for summer term, especially when gathering evidence for possible moderation. You will see in the plan how I have targeted certain children as a focus in certain lessons (XXXX).
-Whole lesson on the phenomenon of Somali Piracy as shown in the film Captain Phillips. New and updated in 2018 to show the drop off and then (slight) recent resurgence in Somali piracy. Fascinating topic that always stirs the imagination of pupils.
-Suitable for KS3 Geography classes.
-Includes starter, main, plenary, key questions and differentiated outcomes.
-Powerpoint has instructions in notes pages to assist.
A great fully animated PowerPoint to introduce the main parts of a pirate ship and to explain their purpose (the preview of the PowewrPoint may look muddled because the animations are layered. Watch the PowerPoint in full screen and watch the magic happen! There is a pirate ship word bank included in this pack and pictures of a pirate ship for children to stick in their books to label (or why not print them on stickers).
These resources include 'A Ballad of John Silver' and 'Sea Fever' by John Mansfields, extracts from Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson, pupil self-assessment sheets etc.
