PPT that follows the sentence stacking sequence for 'The Write Stuff’s year 3 unit. I have put the powerpoint together with a mixed year 3/4 class in mind. I have also included a boxing up grid which I used to aid their planning process for the independent write, and an additional powerpoint for two additional lessons to help develop the ending of the story. We talked a lot about the effect on the reader. Top tips from my teaching experience of this unit: I began with a lesson looking at different openings using a variety of picture books, we talked about how the openings worked to draw the reader in and used what we knew from the book Journey to write an effective opening. I taught a lesson before the start of the sequence giving them the picture of the girl talking to family members and they wrote/drew speech bubbles for the scenes which we then used for SS1 and talked about using different verbs for ‘said’ - this gave them a clearer idea of where the inverted commas needed to go. All pictures included in the powerpoint come from the original text ‘Journey’ by Aaron Becker

This resource is designed for students attempting the Higher GCSE paper. Its aim is to equip these students to tackle questions involving two-stage journeys and unit mismatches, both featuring frequently in exam questions. The resource consists of a cover slide, a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a prior learning check, a worked example and solutions to all ten questions on the worksheet. Throughout the DST triangle is used to represent distance, speed and time. The prior learning check revises converting between different units of time and distance. The questions on the worksheet start simply with a question where students have to add to find total distance and total time before dividing to find the speed. Complexity is added by getting students to find the distance and time in one of the stages and by introducing unit mismatches including getting students to express minutes as fractions or decimals of an hour. The final question is a three-stage journey.

I created this to use with my year 5 class but it would be suitable for year 6 as well. There are hyperlinks to videos on BBC learning zone and to a BBC bitesize activity - some of the questions in the activity are more complex as it is aimed at KS3 but I do not think this would be an issue as it is reinforcing what is learnt through the PowerPoint and extending the children further.
