Seven Natural Wonders Descriptive Writing Challenge - Lesson Bundle!

These highly engaging and purposeful lessons aim to develop a number of important creative writing skills, whilst towards an extended descriptive piece based on the ‘Seven Natural Wonders of the World.’

The lessons are sequenced thoughtfully, progressing children from their initial word level ideas, through sentence level construction, to whole-text composition.

The lessons included are:

1. Building Base Vocabulary
2. Using the Senses
3. Descriptive Devices
4. Fronted Adverbials
5. Whole Text Cohesion and Connectives
6. Editing and Redrafting.

The lessons also build children’s understanding of each of the seven natural wonders, which links well to geography/ environmental cross-curricular study.

Included are each of the clear, eye-catching, comprehensive PowerPoint presentations (these will guide you through the step-by-step journey for each lesson), the worksheets/templates needed for the main activities, and the structure strip for the extended writing piece (all provided in both Word and PDF).

In the past, I have used these lessons with children in lower KS2 (years 3 and 4) - the key learning is aligned with curriculum expectations for writing. All images are licensed for commercial use.
