Oliver - Narrative writing

In this lesson, we will learn about the historical context of the story of Oliver Twist. In addition, we will look closely at the author, setting and characters.

In this lesson, we will investigate the suffixes -tion, -ssion, -sion and -cian.

In this lesson, we will explore word class. We will focus on identifying nouns, adjectives, adverbs and verbs in sentences. We then explore what prepositions are and identify these in sentences.

In this lesson, we will watch and analyse the opening clip to a film version of Oliver Twist. We will generate nouns and adjectives to describe the setting and characters and verbs and adverbs to describe the action. Finally, we will use our new vocabulary to help us write sentences.

In this lesson, we will introduce new vocabulary, identify word pairs and synonyms and apply the vocabulary in sentences.

In this lesson, we will plan the first part of our opening scene. We will look at each frame in detail and generate ideas to help us with our writing in which we will begin in Lesson 8 of this unit.

In this lesson, we will practise and apply our knowledge of the suffixes -tion, -ssion, -sion and -cian.

In this lesson, we will write the first part of the opening scene to the story of Oliver Twist. We will use our plan from Lesson 6 of this unit to help us.

In this lesson, we will watch a film clip and orally retell the narrative to help us plan the second part of the opening of Oliver Twist.

In this lesson, we will review and recap the scene, decide on our success criteria and write the second part of the opening of Oliver Twist.

In this lesson, we will watch a new section of Oliver Twist and begin to analyse it carefully by generating vocabulary to describe the setting, characters and action.

In this lesson, we will investigate words with the vowel sound /ee/, spelt either with an 'ie' or an 'ei'. We will explore a rule that generally applies for the different spellings whilst looking at several patterns within words.

In this lesson, we will explore expanded noun phrases. We will start by introducing the adjective, adjective noun expression. Then we will look at adding in prepositional phrases and to identify these in an expanded noun phrase.

In this lesson, we will review the rules for punctuating speech first and speech second as well as recapping complex sentences. We will then apply this knowledge to help us add more detail to our speech sentences by writing them in complex sentences.

In this lesson, we will introduce new vocabulary, identify word pairs and synonyms and apply the vocabulary in sentences.

In this lesson, we will plan in key vocabulary and phrases to help us with our writing of the first part of the build-up scene.

In this lesson, we will apply knowledge of the spelling rules for words with the vowel sound /ee/, spelt with an 'ie' or an 'ei'. Then, we will use a spelling strategy to practise and complete a test at the end of the lesson.

In this lesson, we will review and recap the scene, identify the success criteria and use our plan to write the first part of the build-up scene.

In this lesson, we will plan in key vocabulary and speech sentences to help us with our writing of the second part of the build-up scene.

In this lesson, we will think about what we've already written, then we will identify our success criteria to think about what to include to make our writing as successful as possible.
