A three week Talk for Writing unit based on the model text: The Snoozatron by Wallace and Gromit’s ‘Cracking Contraptions’. Children will learn the model text during the imitation phase as well as study the text structure and features. They will work towards writing their own explanation using a different invention video. Week 2 includes an innovation week based on the book Until I Met Dudley, giving children another good example of an explanation to manipulate.
One lesson in Wk1 recaps the use of prepositions.
Comes with 3 weeks of Power Points, a model text and a copy of the box up grid I have used for planning during Wk2 and 3 of the unit- all are easily editable to suit the needs of your class and many of the slides are useful for screen shotting and printing for use in books. Each day also has a SPaG starter question
For the innovation stage there are small chunks of the model text that are highlighted with areas for the children to consider changing/ adapting to suit their new title. This can be modeled or edited in a way to suit your teaching style.
