This resource is a 6 week unit of work learning about saints. The unit of work consists of:
Week 1 - What is a saint? Investigation into saints and the children’s prior knowledge.
Week 2 - Researching different saints lesson
Week 3 - Investigating the terms martyr and revered
Week 4 - The impact saints have had on people’s lives and what they sacrificed. This is research on Martin Luther King and Mother Theresa. I used Twinkl comprehensions to help with this lesson.
Week 5 - debate questions -Do you think Jesus is a saint? Should saints be dead before they are recognised? Do saints have to be believers in God?
Week 6 - evaluation lesson
There is a powerpoint for each lesson along with worksheets, planning and resources where relevant.
This is a really enjoyable unit of work and I hope you enjoy teaching it as much as I do!
This is a two week writing resource focusing on description. It uses parts from chapters 1 -4 of War Horse. It is for the children to write about leaving the pen after being sold to arriving at the stables. This goes through a writing process in the following format:
Analysing Joey’s feelings in the first chapter
Key vocabulary searching
Reading and analysing example texts and high quality descriptive writing from other novels
Planning the writing
Drafting the first paragraph (Joey leaving the pen after being sold) with modelled writing
Drafting the second paragraph (The journey to the stables) with modelled writing
Drafting the third paragraph (Arriving at the stables) with modelled writing
Big writing the final piece
Each lesson also has a grammar focus beginning with identifying main clauses and subordinate clauses and then moving onto relative clauses in the second week. The PowerPoint has guidance on this but I have used resources from elsewhere for the activities the children need to complete (only for the grammar).
Resources included in this pack:
