Based on the evocative imagery and themes present in Grahame Baker-Smith’s “Wild is the Wind,” a comprehensive four-week unit of work could be developed to explore similes, adjectives, and poetry through the lens of nature’s power and beauty.

This resource would feature a detailed lesson plan structured in the style of a Medium-Term Plan (MTP), outlining learning objectives (LOs), activities, and assessment opportunities across the four weeks. Accompanying this would be a series of engaging PowerPoints, each visually rich and designed to introduce and reinforce key concepts, drawing directly from the book’s descriptive language and illustrations. To cater to diverse learning needs, the unit would include a set of differentiated worksheets, offering varied levels of challenge and support, with a specifically adapted version thoughtfully designed to meet the learning requirements of a SEND child, perhaps focusing on visual prompts and simplified language inspired by Baker-Smith’s artistic style.

This multi-faceted resource aims to immerse students in the poetic language of “Wild is the Wind,” fostering their understanding of literary devices while celebrating the awe-inspiring force of the natural world depicted in the book.
