10 Week Comprehensive Scheme of Work on 'Mr Stink' using Australian Life Skills Outcomes

This unit teaches students the importance of empathy and compassion whilst engaging students with David Walliam’s humour. Students have previously studied the work the work of Roald Dahl, so they are familiar with this genre and language. This unit is designed to have students’ write in various forms throughout the term and variate their language and structure according the Purpose, Audience and Form. These writing tasks will be marked by the teacher as part of their Summative Assessment with the final task of creating a digital review of the novel in weeks 9 and 10.

Students will be continuing the Reinforced Reading component of the MultiLit program with the class SLSO 1:1 as they are selected on a rotational basis to re-read the chapter that has been modelled to the class followed by the completion of a vocabulary and comprehension worksheet for the corresponding chapter. Student accuracy and fluency will continue to be assessed on a fortnightly basis using the MultiLit WARP assessment tool.
