Year 3 Planning Summer Term Literacy Mathematics Ref A

(0)
Important! If you’d like to buy the whole year’s planning (Autumn, Spring and Summer) you’d be better off buying my bundle. This is planning for year 3 for a Summer term. Plenty of great material here that you can adapt and cut and paste into your own school’s model. After decades of teaching I’m retired from teaching now. I’d like to help the younger generation so I’m putting my plans online. I hope your Sundays will be made a little easier by cutting and pasting allowing you more free time. You get: Literacy planning e.g. Adventure and Mystery Stories 4 weeks, Authors and Letters 4 weeks, Plays and Dialogues 3 weeks Numeracy 9 weeks Creative curriculum (a bit) RE (a bit - I taught mainly in Catholic schools so feel free to ditch this if you please) Science (a bit) You get 190 mb of material, which is good value in my opinion. Remember, all schools are different so you will have to adapt my materials to suit your school. It’s not a silver bullet, but should save you lots of time as you can cut and paste. Great for N.Q.T.'s and experienced alike.

I’ve combined all my planning from the schools I taught in. I was in a few schools in the U.K., quite a few of them Catholic. There is a massive amount of planning for you to sift through. Years range all the way through from 4 year olds to 11 year olds. There’s some great powerpoints, lesson plans, sheets, even a play or two. You’ll have to sift through them as I am enjoying my retirement too much to do that! You get over 250 mb of stuff (300 plus files)

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Planning Roald Dahl Literacy

(1)
Three weeks great planning. Don’t expect lessons on Charlie. It’s report writing in English using Charlie with powerpoints etc Great powerpoints Zip file has more. I’ve put some example stuff on to give you a flavour. Introduce the new unit and read the writing outcome with the children. Complete a skills audit verbally. TTYP – what skills do you already have that will help you to achieve the outcome? What skills do you think you will need to revise? Are there any completely new skills you will need? Introduce the focus text. We know a lot about Roald Dahl from our biography unit. Has anyone ever read ‘Charlie…’? Seen the films? Explain that we need to know the story line and the characters, so we are going to spend today’s lesson using the 2005 film as a visual text. The rest of the week will be spent comparing the visual text to the written text and completing various activities and pieces of writing. Become familiar with the story by using a visual text. Use both visual and written texts to analyse character and setting descriptions. Finish any of the DVD which we didn’t finish yesterday. Use the written text to read the character descriptions of Charlie, his parents, grandparents and the four other winners of golden tickets. Activity One Come back together, discuss and put information on working wall. Repeat with setting descriptions. Look at a still of Charlie’s house from the film and read the setting description for it. Look at the still from the ‘meadow’ in the chocolate factory and read the description on pages 87-90. Activity Two Revise features of journalistic writing. Compose a newspaper article using the correct form and language. Working in pairs, children to sketch a story mountain onto a whiteboard. Children to then summarise ‘Charlie…’ using one or two sentences for each section of the mountain. Come back together and discuss. Read chapter five of the text. What main event is happening? The announcement of the golden ticket competition. Watch 14:28 – 15:44 – how does the film embellish the details given in the book? Explain today’s task, you are a senior news reporter for the ‘International Herald’ a newspaper which is published in many different countries, many different languages all over the world. Your editor has asked you to write a newspaper article about this event. Your report will be published the day after Willy Wonka’s signs went up. You will be reporting on the competition, the prizes and the mania sweeping the world. TTYP – what are main features of a journalistic piece of writing? Come back together and list for the working wall: Headline, paragraphs, subheadings, quotations, orientation, 5 ws, past tense, direct, formal, balanced etc. Brainstorm some headlines for our article. List the 5 Ws on the working wall. Give each child a checklist and an inverted pyramid.

Learning/Writing outcome: To plan, draft, write and improve an engaging short story in a particular genre using appropriate language and organisational features. Introduce the words ‘fiction’ and ‘genre’. TTYP and discuss the meaning of the word ‘genre’. At this point, introduce the new and improved writing journals where children can make notes during lessons, can jot down words they wish to magpie, jot words that they have generated but which aren’t suitable for the task in hand and can jot questions/things they are unsure about. Explain that I will prompt to use these for the first couple of days but then children need to become more independent. Prizes for most effective use! Ensure the children understand the difference between fiction ‘narrative’ and non fiction ‘non narrative’. Activity One Come back together and do class mind map for working wall. Ask children to think of any titles of books which could fit with any of these genres. Ask children to discuss their preferences and discuss our preferences with them.

During my time as a teacher, I enjoyed doing a Big Write or Big Writing. I’ve gathered all my materials together.

I’ve included a lot of Greek Myths stuff as I remember this as the best Big Write. sample : To understand the features of myths Introduce the topic of Myths and Legends. Mind map any ideas about ‘myths’ children already have. Explain that the class will be building up their own myth. With each group working on a different aspect of the myth. Show success criteria – list of features of a myth. Read Theseus and the Minotaur, pick out the different features of the myth, evident in this story. Each group will discuss and write ideas for each section. LA (Supported by Ta) Group 1: Describe the hero of the myth. Group 2: Describe the monster of the myth. Children will write ideas, words on post-it notes. If this was a full lesson: Put together all the different groups’ ideas to build a storyboard for the class myth. As a class, decide on a title for our class ‘myth’. Children can: identify all the features of myths Features of a ‘myth’ · When and where is it set? · A hero/heroine · What is the problem? · Does the hero have special powers? · Fantastical beast · The hero’s journey · The conflict · The solution · How does it end? · Is it interesting? MA (Supported by ta) Group 3: Describe the setting of the myth. Group 4: Describe the journey the hero will make. Children will write ideas, words on post-it notes.
