Year 6 - Ted Talk - Philosophy for happiness

This is an English Plan (with resources) which helps children to write and then present a TedTalk on their philosophy for happiness. It is based on a TedTalk by Sam Berns. The grammar focus is heavily linked to the outcome. The use of short sentences, patterned language and precise punctuation gives the writing more meaning. This unit is focused on HPL (Higher Performance Learning) and the UK National Curriculum. This plan focuses on children reading aloud and presenting a piece of writing they have a great deal of ownership over.
