Probably the most detailed and comprehensive scheme of work you will ever encounter. I wrote this scheme for KS3/crossover into KS4. It covers the whole novel within the time frame of the autumn term (12 weeks). All 42 lessons use a range of reading strategies in order to decode the text. The scheme also includes a range of non fiction sources to help students understand the context and interpret meaning. Roughly 11 lessons out of the 42 are for creative writing and ask children to put themselves into the shoes of either the author or his characters.
