<p>A four week Talk for Writing unit based on the popular tale: The Night Pirates. Children will learn the model text and work towards writing their own version of the story where their character goes on an adventure with some rough, tough girl pirates! Lots of short burst tasks based around adjectives, adverbs and conjunctions etc…<br />
Comes with 4 weeks of Power Points, a model text and a copy of the box up grid I have used throughout the unit- all are easily editable to suit the needs of your class and many of the slides are useful for screen shotting and printing for use in books.<br />
For the innovation stage there are small chunks of the model text as bookmarks and highlighted with areas for the children to consider changing.<br />
Many slides also include either an oral starter or a SATs style starter question.</p>

Who were pirates, what did they do, how did they live and what can we learn to make ourselves better people?
<p>A 2 week unit based on the book The Night Pirates including reading lessons, sequencing, rewriting a familiar story, creating a new character and writing a new version of the story.</p>
<p>Editable powerpoints and worksheets included.</p>
<p>Pirate treasure from the sea bed could be beautiful, mouldy or smashed to bits. It could be flamboyant or faded, delicate or dangerous, and you might find it floating and drifting or submerged and water-logged. It’ll probably be secret, too - stolen, smuggled and concealed. All these words and many more are listed in this mind-stretching word bank. Either read out from it yourself or copy and distribute it around your class, for selecting and trying out, or to trigger other ideas. Encourage some of these words in conversation too.</p>

<p>The famous pirate game. Perfect for end-of-term activity.<br />
This slight variation uses a random name generator alongside it to choose who gets hit by the uncontrollable bomb (the students love this aspect).</p>
<p>Instructions for play are on the notes of the first slide. This slide has the grid on which I use to cross out grid references during the game.</p>
<p>All images and text has “no background” so the sheets can be printed on any color sheet and still look good.</p>
An introduction lesson to 'Pirates'. <br />
<br />
This is a lesson with a series of chunked tasks to introduce piracy to pupils or this could be used as a fun one off lesson. <br />
<br />
You do not need exercise books for this lesson. All videos have link provided or are embedded.
<p>Find out where the pirate treasure is buried by decoding the words using a coordinate grid with letters on. The interactive Powerpoint contains: recapping coordinates, a full set of clues (that can be printed and worked through) and of course - the answer! As an extension, why not ask the children to write to a friend or Captain Blackbeard himself!</p>
