Boudica's Army (I Was There) Week 1 English Plan and Resources

(0)
Welcome to Week 1 of our six-week English scheme of work based on ‘Boudica’s Army’ by Hilary Mckay written especially for Year 3 (aged 7 and 8)! ‘Boudica’s Army’ is perfectly pitched for Year 3: it follows Boudica’s rampage against the Romans in a mild and age appropriate way whilst focusing on an unlikely but heartwarming friendship between a Roman and Celt. Our 30 x 1 hour English lessons will take your class through the story with carefully planned differentiated grammar activities: pronouns, nouns, conjunctions, adverbs and fronted adverbials. Your class will complete three extended pieces of writing: an explanation text, a play script and a persuasive letter. This scheme of work will enable you to regain your work-life-balance! We have created every single resource for you: whiteboard slides, word mats, teaching videos, differentiated activities, posters for your Working Wall and our engaging hand-drawn images. So take a look at Week 1 of our six-week scheme of work, take the pressure off yourself and let the learning rampage through your classroom! The whole scheme can be downloaded from Teaching From Text’s website.

It is a fantastically engaging text which tells the story of young Joe, who mysteriously time travels back to Roman Britain when he visits the ruins of a Roman Palace!

All Learning Intentions come from the National Curriculum for Reading, Writing, Vocabulary, Grammar and Punctuation for Lower Key Stage 2. During this unit, the children have three extended writing tasks: • Letter Writing • Non-Chronological Report • Narrative Many grammar objectives are also covered throughout the scheme, which have been designed to engage the children as they develop their understanding. These objectives include adverbs or manner and time, fronted adverbials, expanded noun phrases, time and cause conjunctions and using and punctuating direct speech. Furthermore, the scheme also covers many of the Year 4 reading objectives, including inference, summarising, explaining the meaning of words in context, using words that capture a reader’s attention, retrieving and recording non-fiction information, predicting, participating in discussions, and finally, identifying themes across the text. This scheme will save teachers a whole term of planning and preparation time for English lessons! Every single lesson plan and resource you will need for the whole seven weeks is provided for you.
