Using literacy shed’s short clip - Alma - I have created a short unit of work where the end goal is that the children write their own Police Report. Alma goes ‘missing’ and the children have to gather evidence and write a report for the Chief of Police. Lessson 1 - Hook - gathering evidence from a range of sources - I also got the children to dress up as detectives/police officers for this day to immerse them in their learning. Lesson 2 - Features of a PR and passive voice Lesson 3 - recap of passive voice and planning (vocab and paragraphs) Lesson 4- Writing Lesson 5 - Writing Lesson 6 - Writing Lesson 7 - Writing & Lesson 8 - Publishing Resources are made by me but will need editing with dates/L.O. etc.
