Rabbit Proof Fence - Narrative writing

In this lesson, we will explore the context of the film, Rabbit Proof Fence. Short clips from this film will support writing outcomes throughout this unit and in this lesson we will consider themes as well as introduce the main characters.

In this lesson, we will investigate the suffixes -ant, -ent, -ance, -ence and study the origin of some words that use these suffixes. 10 spelling words will be explained and set to learn.

In this lesson, we will review the function of apostrophes before identifying how apostrophes have been used in different examples.

In this lesson, we will analyse a short clip of the film, before planning the scene. We also discuss some key information relating to the context of the film shown and key vocabulary used within the film clip.

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

In this lesson, we will edit and improve a sentence before reviewing how to write a non-finite clause complex sentence. Finally, after re-watching the clip to support writing this scene, we will plan a non-finite clause complex sentence for each image in the scene.

In this lesson, we will practise and apply knowledge of the suffixes -ant, -ent, -ance, -ence and learn a spelling practice strategy. The 10 spelling words set in the previous lesson will be revisited and tested.

In this lesson, we will spot the error in a warm up, sentence level activity. Following a revision of adverbial phrases and clauses, we will add content to planning for one final time before writing the opening scene.

In this lesson, we will review compound sentences and analyse a piece of model writing before writing this first narrative scene.

In this lesson, we will generate synonyms to support their work when editing this outcome. Before editing our writing outcome, a model piece of writing will be edited and improved in this lesson which will support independent work.

In this lesson, we will revise identifying the subject and object in a sentence, before analysing a new short scene. We will plan with support and then independently in preparation for a free write in the next lesson.

In this lesson, we will investigate the suffixes -able and -ible and discuss similarities and differences in words using them.

In this lesson, we will review word class in a sentence before reviewing knowledge of subject, verb and object. We will practise identifying the subject, verb and object in a sentence.

In this lesson, we will practise writing a relative clause complex sentence. We will review all elements of planning for this scene before having the opportunity to free write the narrative scene.

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

In this lesson, we wil consider alternative synonyms for these words. After reviewing speech rules, we will consider how to incorporate speech effectively so that it supports characterisation and advances the action.

In this lesson, we will practise and apply our knowledge of the suffixes -able and -ible.

In this lesson, we will review key spellings before planning the initial part of the second scene. Planning will be tackled in two parts to support the initial stages and become more independent when planning the second part.

In this lesson, we will revisit writing complex sentences and plan a complex sentence for an image in this second scene. Before writing, children. We will analyse a model text considering two specific writing criteria. We will write anarrative scene.

In this lesson, we will edit and improve our writing. We will discuss the role of an editor for writers.
