KS3 Non-Fiction Writing Scheme of Work

(3)
KS3 Non-Fiction Writing Scheme of Work This PowerPoint contains twenty one-hour lessons (233 slides) that focus on nonfiction writing skills, and is aimed at Key Stage Three. There are a wide range of tasks (lessons listed below) that focus on building the key skills of nonfiction writing: planning, language and structure methods, accurate punctuation, vocabulary and proofreading. There are practice questions, original non-fiction model responses, extension tasks, punctuation activities, and a whole bunch more! I have also included a second PowerPoint that can be printed as a resource booklet for students. This will save you time in printing and slicing (and will also save you a fortune on glue sticks!). Additionally, there are weekly homework tasks. And three printable sheets that can be used as KS3 nonfiction cover work if you are in a pinch. The premise is that students would gather information about a particular non- fiction topic by watching a documentary. They would then learn about the form of the text and plan their responses thoroughly. They would then learn a new skill and use this to complete some extended writing, before proofreading and editing their work. As a result, for some texts, they will be planning and writing over multiple lessons to really give them the chance to develop and hone their non-fiction writing skills. Please Note: The longer documentaries are available on Netflix; however, I have also provided alternatives on YouTube for teachers that do not have access to a Netflix account. Areas covered: Lesson 1: Baseline assessment on tackling climate change Lesson 2: Editing letters on education Lesson 3: Exciting introductions on filters Lesson 4: Writing leaflets on homelessness Lesson 5: Watching the world water crisis documentary Lesson 6: Planning, introductions and speech features Lesson 7: Writing a speech on the world water crisis Lesson 8: Headlines and newspaper features Lesson 9: Watching the fast food documentary Lesson 10: Discourse markers and planning articles Lesson 11: Writing an article on fast food Lesson 12: Midterm assessment on fast fashion Lesson 13: Watching the gender pay gap documentary Lesson 14: Structural features and letter planning Lesson 15: Writing a letter on the gender pay gap Lesson 16: Midterm assessment feedback Lesson 17: Watching the plastics documentary Lesson 18: Persuasive methods and planning texts Lesson 19: Writing the KS3 non-fiction writing end of unit assessment Lesson 20: Writing leaflets on our planet Extra: Three cover lessons Both the scheme and the resource booklet and provided in PPT and PDF formats. My GCSE Paper Two: Section B scheme of work can be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-11873033 Please check out my other resources. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
