Year 1 Planning English Maths Some Religion cc

Gathered together my plans from an excellent Catholic school.

sample:
Watch the story of Rapunzel with the children http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOgZkcs72oI
Also show the pictures (thorns, tower, hair, witch etc) that are being used in the lesson on PP. Make sure that everyone is clear on what the pictures are of. Explain that today we will be using our phonic knowledge to write some of the main words in the Rapunzel story, to prepare us for our sentence writing next session. Practise with a few words.

Ask the children to recap the story of Rapunzel with a talk partner. As a class verbally retell and order the story. Fill in the story journey of Rapunzel. Discuss the order and use of time connectives and language.

Ask the children to think about where the story was set. Today we will be thinking of words that describe the tower that Rapunzel was imprisoned in and different towers. We will start by describing the tower that Rapunzel was imprisoned in. Ask the children to give suggestions of their descriptive words, CT to write them up alongside the picture. Ask children to support CT in spelling the words.

Talk to the children about good and bad characters, remind them off the goats and troll from last week. Name each of the characters, discuss if they were good or bad. Explain that we will make a wanted poster for the witch as we did for the troll last week. To prepare ourselves we will think of as many words to describe the witch as we can. Display the picture of the witch and give the chn time to think, pair and share. CT to model how to put these words into sentences.
