Year 3 English Unit of Work based around the story ‘Malala’s Magic Pencil’ by Malala Yousafzai. English planning objectives link to the Year 3 National Curriculum for Reading, Speaking and Listening, Grammar and Writing. This unit comes downloadable with 12 lesson plans, worksheets and display posters. End of unit writing piece: A letter to the local MP explaining a ‘wish’ for the future.
**Unit Overview: **
In this unit, the unit ‘hook’ will involve introducing children to their very own “magic pencil” to spark interest. Using this pencil, they will draw what they want to bring to life. The class will then discover the story ‘Malala’s Magic Pencil’ by Malala Yousafzai, making predictions based on the book’s cover. Through shared reading sessions, pupils will learn how to infer characters’ feelings and thoughts. Engaging in discussions about ‘Malala’s’ impactful actions will involve answering inference questions. While exploring the challenges Malala faced in her upbringing, children will participate in thought-provoking conversations, respecting different viewpoints. Grammar skills for direct speech and subordinating conjunctions will be taught to express their ideas for their very own ‘wish’ for the future. A letter from Malala to her local Member of Parliament advocating for ‘universal education’ will be unpicked to recognise the features of a letter. Through collaborative planning and writing, children will draft their letter to their local representative. After editing their letter, children will orally present their vision for the future to the class.

Unit overview:
In this unit, the children will discover a UFO crash scene in the school grounds! Children will be engaged in discussion about who has crashed here, where are they and should we be worried? The class will be introduced to the book ‘Beegu’ by Alexis Deacon. Through shared reading lessons, children will be taught how to make inferences, using the information provided through text and images. Children will also be encouraged to link emotions from the story to their own personal experiences of being lost or upset. As the children continue to read the text, they will be taught how to make simple predictions based on what they have already read. After reading the whole text, the class will use story maps to sequence and retell the main events from the story. Children will then analyse the spelling and grammar features within the text, with special attention to the use of apostrophe for contraction and the use of the prefix ‘un’ for adjectives. Personal pronoun ‘I’ will be used to support the children when writing a simple ‘police statement’ regarding their thoughts about Beegu. The unit will then build up to one final writing piece, orally rehearsing the sentences to write a recount of Beegu’s time on Earth.

As they continue to read the text, they will be taught how to summarise the main points. As they discover new vocabulary within the text, they will use a dictionary to find word meanings and definitions. They will also begin to make inferences about the characters feelings, through speaking and listening, forming opinions and verbalising arguments as to why ‘The Great Kapok Tree’ should not be cut down. Using the vocabulary throughout the text, children will explore the use of expanded noun phrases to describe the rainforest animals. They will also be taught to recognise where pronouns have been used appropriately within the text to avoid repetition. They will take a closer look at the punctuation used within the text, recognising and learning more about how direct speech is punctuated. The children will then identify a special tree within the school grounds that they discover is about to be chopped down. They will debate pros and cons for this.

The children will then be taught about why the glossary is important in non-fiction books. They will read simple definitions from key words within the text. Building upon this, they will begin to write their own simple definitions of topic words relating to toys. Using the knowledge learnt from this unit, children will plan out simple ideas to write their own factual text about a toy from the past.

Unit overview:
In this unit, children will be ‘hooked’ in with a special delivery to class, including the book ‘Stick Man’ by Julia Donaldson. After exploring the delivery, they will proceed to create their own Stick people. During shared reading lessons, children will be encouraged to identify the rhyming words within the story and join in with predictable phrases. When reading, children will become familiar with reading words with apostrophes to show contraction. Next, they will be taught to make simple predictions about what might happen next in the story. Children will then begin to make inferences about how Stick Man might be feeling at different points within the story, using clues within the text to support them. Once the children are familiar with the story, they will use freeze frames and storyboards to sequence the story, retelling the main events within the story. The class will then explore the text to discover how exclamation marks are used effectively. Following this, the class will receive a letter delivered by Santa Claus!
