After 15 years of primary teaching, I decided to 'hop' out and supply, in order to maintain a 'work / life' balance with three small boys to look after and one big one (husband). I have decided to circulate some exciting and creative units of work, of which I planned, completed, refined and shared many times over successfully in my primary school setting.

Using Ancient Greece as a topic to immerse Year 5 pupils into a poetry unit of work. The Trojan Horse story sets the scene and introduces Homer as a person of interest to get the children reading, writing and analysing descriptive language and using high level vocabulary.
The resources contain real extracts from Homer's 'Iliad' with excellent examples of innovation, plus success criteria, vocabulary definitions, power-point about Homer and much more!
This unit then flows very neatly into a non-fiction genre of Newspaper Reports, with the poetry story content put into the features of an Ancient newspaper recount. Again, with excellent examples and success criteria / tool-kits.
