Lesson plan based around using the 5 senses in our writing- I used the ‘Chaperon Rouge’ clip from The Literacy Shed as a stimulus. I created this lesson for an interview and it went down really well. It was intended for a (very snappy!) 30 minute lesson but could easily be an hour’s one if needed. Intended for a year 5 class but can easily be adapted for year 4 or year 6.
Resource includes:
Lesson plan
Example adjectives and sentence openers to support LA students
Screen shots from the film to have on the desks
Planning sheet for students
