Set homework due for Thursday.
Read chapters 3 and 4 of the focus text.
TTYP – what change are we starting to see in the savage now? With your partner find at least three examples of language used by the author that makes the savage seem animal like. Come back together and discuss.
Why doesn’t the savage have any words? What could he represent? (Introduce the idea that he could be a physical representation of Blue’s grief).
During chapter 4, the line between fiction and reality is starting to blur. What does that mean?
Discuss the fact that savage is starting to make his way into the other chapters; Blue says that people coming out of the pub have seen him etc. Blue’s decision to put himself and Jess into the story is also another example.

Year 5 Summer Term Literacy The Piano
Year Group: 5 Term: Summer 2 Week Beginning: ¬30/6/14 (Week 1 of Film Narrative)
Focus: Unit 5 Film Narrative
Key Vocabulary: Character, colour, composition, camera angle, setting, sound, symbol, sequence, story, inference, deduction, figurative
Resources: Piano film, individual whiteboards, KWL grids, zones of relevance,
Overview of unit:
Teaching Phase One
Children watch and re-watch the film The Piano by Aidan Gibbons. They use key points in the film to discuss features and themes and explore approaches made by the film maker to create moods, pace and viewpoint. Children develop their film metalanguage by identifying how colour, light, sound and camera angles have been used to tell the narrative. They use a reading journal to record opinions of the narrative.
Teaching Phase Two
Children have worked as part of a group to use drama strategies to explore characters in depth. They devise questions to ask the main characters and work in role to explore more complex emotional issues. Children demonstrate growing understanding of characters by writing a short conversation at a key point in the film using the conventions of speech punctuation. They use a reading journal to record inferences and demonstrate understanding of characters by writing in the first person.
Teaching Phase Three
Children develop a story board for the narrative by capturing and importing key images into a presentation program. They then write their own version of The Piano, organising writing into paragraphs and creating a multimodal presentation of this version including images, voice-over, soundtrack and written text.
Mini-Task:
Put chn into ‘The Pit’ by showing them the beginning clip of the Disney film UP.
Chn are to complete an analysis grid whilst watching (differentiated) (5 mins)
Quick feedback using beach ball for chn to share aspects of their analysis.
So what do you think our L/O is going to be today?
Discuss potential ideas and then reveal actual L/O and S/C.
Explain that they have one part of the S/C already done but they need to add the second part using their targets. (5 mins)
Explain that over the next two weeks we will be watching a very beautiful film as part of our film narrative unit building up to including this in our animations about the 90s.
Today however we will only listen to the music from the film and your task will be to create a narrative that reflects the music.

Lent Ash Wednesday Catholic Church Great Powerpoint
Lovely powerpoint that explains a lot about this important season.
WALT explain the symbols and colours of Easter.
SUCCESS CRITERIA:
I know why certain colours are used at particular times in the Church’s year.
I know that the Church celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus at the Easter Vigil.
I understand some reasons why the Feast of Easter is the most important celebration in the Christian Year.
I can discuss the meaning of some of the Church’s actions and symbols at the Easter Vigil.
Red, symbolising the Holy Spirit, is used on the Day of Pentecost and at other times when the work of the Holy Spirit is emphasized . Saints and Martyrs who dedicated their lives to God all showed the power of the Holy Spirit that was within them; so priests may wear red on certain Saints days. Red will also be worn at a Confirmation service.

Shakespeare Romeo and Juliet Rewrite Planning Powerpoints Worksheets
A great set of planning.
Concentrates on rewriting Shakespeare’s famous tal.
Sample planning:
Begin by introducing the new topic and the learning outcome. We will be studying ‘older’ literature. Explain that older literature is defined as anything written before 1914 but we are going to look at much older than this!
Show a picture of William Shakespeare: children to TTYP –
Who is this man?
What is he famous for?
Can you name any of his works?
Come back together and elicit that William Shakespeare was an author – not of stories but of plays and sonnets (poems). Talk about some of his more famous work and explain that he wrote 38 plays and over 160 sonnets.
Shakespeare was born in 1564 and died in 1616. He produced most of his work between 1589 and 1613 – why do you think he wrote mostly plays rather than stories? Elicit that he was an actor so he loved the stage and he intended his works to be acted out rather than just read and also because of the times. TV and film were not entertainment options and the majority of people couldn’t read so going to the theatre or watching an outside performance was very popular.
Explain that Shakespeare’s plays can be broadly split into tragedies and comedies. TTYP – what does this mean?
Show a list including some of Shakespeare’s most famous comedies and tragedies.
Talk about our recent history topic – who would have been on the throne when Shakespeare was writing (Elizabeth I until 1603 and then James I start of the Stuart dynasty). Talk briefly about the context to Shakespeare’s plays – Elizabeth I ruled over a very successful empire, England was starting to explore and find new shores and arts & culture were becoming more important and sought after.
Finish reading the children’s version of ‘Romeo and Juliet’. Explain that this has been adapted for a young audience – it has been changed from a play script to a narrative and the language and been modernised.
List the main characters on the board, to include:
The Capulets etc

stone age boy satoshi kitamura Planning Year 4 Literacy
Some nice simple planning for this excellent book. Plus some other bobs and bits.
example:
WALT: Prepare a short drama performance.
Display an image of a cave on IWB. Hand out a post-it note to each child and ask them to write a sentence on it to describe one of the caves. Once they have finished, they should swap their post-it with a partner and try to edit or improve their partner’s sentence.
Enlarge the illustration from pages 24-25 of Stone Age Boy. Ask the children to imagine how the boy feels as he enters the cave. Arrange children into an ‘alley’, with the children each facing a partner in a long line to make a corridor. Ask for a volunteer to be
the boy and allow each child to say what he might be
thinking as he walks past them down the middle of the cave corridor. Mixed Ability Groups:
Ask children to work in groups to role play the boy and Om walking through the cave. They should prepare a short drama of this part of the story and they need to include a ‘narrator’, whose role it is to explain what the boy is thinking and feeling. Prompt children to use the
thesaurus skills they worked on earlier in the week to find interesting words to include in their drama. Take time to perform some of the dramas. Ask for feedback from the other children
including what went well and what could be improved.
