This is lesson 1 from a three-week+ Lesson set Overview and outcomes: based within the context of Ocean Meets Sky by the Fan Brothers.

This beautiful and poignant story has stunning illustrations
throughout and explores themes of family, memory and loss. The unit begins by introducing the authors to the children and highlighting the power of bookmaking/storytelling. Children find a
mysterious box in the classroom labelled “Grandpa’s Stuff”. Inside they will find clues to who Grandpa was and his relationship with the main character, Finn. Finn misses his Grandfather after he has
passed away and longs to travel to the fantastical worlds that his Grandpa would tell him about in his stories. **Children are given a variety of meaningful writing opportunities throughout the sequence
and gradually build up the skills to write an extended fantasy story of their own. **
Main outcomes for the lesson set: Setting and character descriptions, labels, diary entry, postcard, captain’s log,
instructions, dialogue, extended fantasy narrative
