PPT that follows the sentence stacking sequence for 'The Write Stuff’s year 4 unit. I have put the powerpoint together with a mixed year 3/4 class in mind. I have also included a boxing up grid which I used to aid their planning process for the independent write. I spent as much time as possible talking about the fact that the script is like a set of instructions - whatever you write as the dialogue is exactly what the actor/actress will say and how.
Top tips from my teaching experience of this unit:
I began with a lesson looking at how to write a playscript using the BBC bitesize article and then we wrote the start of a script for the Gruffalo.
I taught it in a 4 week 4 day half term - ideally I would have liked longer to really get them to understand how writing a play script is different to a narrative.
The spaces in the ppt - if you teach the experience day where you act out the story following the BBC podcast, use photos from that session to show which part of the play you are focusing on. My class got very excited to see which small group I had featured each SS lesson.
