This highly engaging and enjoyable unit of work is designed to help students write creatively with a particular focus on narrative and descriptive writing. It supports students in actively exploring and enjoying both descriptive and narrative texts, looking at excellent and varied models from a range of literature and identifying successful features before moving to composing their own creative responses. It is aimed at a first year Junior Cycle class and may also be a suitable unit for a second year class depending on ability. A well presented 83 slide teaching PPT is included as well as a detailed set of teacher’s notes with suggested approaches and all thirteen classroom resources.

Learning outcomes (from Junior Cycle Specification) addressed in this unit include:

  1. Demonstrate their understanding that there is a clear purpose for all writing activities and be able to plan, draft, re-draft, and edit their own writing as appropriate.
  2. Write for a variety of purposes, for example to imagine, explore, engage, amuse, narrate.
  3. Engage with and learn from models of oral and written language use to enrich their own written work
    Reading

I enjoyed teaching this unit and hope you do too.
