Description
This is a five session writing workshop designed to support Y6 writers achieve their age related expectation. It could easily be adapted by other KS2 classes for use as news report unit.
During the project, children pick events from the story of Theseus and retell them in a journalistic style. They explore topic sentences, direct speech, reported speech, passive voice and many other skills. All resources are included.
I ran this as a one-day writing workshop for writers who were a little off track.
It could easily be adapted for use in any KS2 setting – everything is fully editable.
I had some great outcomes – I’m sure you will too.
