Lower ability writing lessons: our world and other worlds

A super fun series of writing-focussed lessons that I made for my LA Y7 class. My class are assessed using Primary-style descriptors but this shouldn’t impact the delivery of these lessons to any LA KS3 class or Primary students.

Students look at dystopia and utopia as concepts and then explore these in their own writing. They write creatively, and also write transactional pieces based on pertinent global issues in our own world. The unit ends with some fantastically creative project-based work on designing and promoting their own planet.
