As well as four rich writing opportunities (non-chronological report writing, biography writing, poetry and persuasive writing) the unit covers many punctuation and grammar aspects through bespoke teaching videos and teaching slides. The unit covers word classes, prepositions, relative clauses, determiners, cohesion, subject and verb agreement, perfect form of verbs and irregular verbs. The English unit has strong links with PSHCE as it explores the themes of prejudice and discrimination in ‘Journey to the River Sea’ as well as learning that personal behaviours can affect other people.
