They could be spread over 6 days - I wanted to do the narrative in one week.
* 6 plot points covered - guided tasks, models for planning and writing

Detailed Smart Notebook slides included and also uploaded in PowerPoint form (100 slides). I have exported it in ppt so it may not look quite the same with fonts and images so made need some rectifying to make it look the same.

All resources and model writes included.

This resource is an updated version of my 2 week plan which was uploaded last year. There are some similarities in the planning, however, changes were made due to using Jane Considine’s ‘Hooked on Books’ approach to Reading and loosely using ‘The Write Stuff’ to plan and write using the lenses.

Suitable for Years 3 and 4.

Used book to go with Earthquakes and Volcanoes topic.
