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.

• What are the consequences of not buying your product?
• Any other useful information.
Remind the children of the key areas where they gain marks: A – S structure and punctuation. B – Text structure and organisation. C – Composition and effect. F – Handwriting.

Christmas Five Powerpoints Plus Planning Catholic Flavor
Five powerpoints plus planning.
I’ve converted the powerpoints to a pdf and you can download and have a good look.
sample planning:
Ask children to think about their literacy lessons – TTYP and name the important details that are needed in telling a story
(e.g. time, place, characters and events).
Ask children to the recall names of the four main Gospels.
Do they all tell the same story? (Essentially yes but lead children towards idea that they are different versions of the same story).
Use analogy of an incident occurring on the playground – would each child tell the same incident in the same way? No they would tell their version of the same event – some details and word choices would differ.
Talk about today’s WALT and explain that we are going to be looking at some different Gospel accounts of the birth of Jesus Christ. Explain to ch that, in order to achieve their WALT, they will need to be comparing and contrasting everything which they read.
Explain briefly that three out of the four Gospels deal with the birth or Christ; there are many similarities and many differences in the way in which the Gospels record and explain the event.
For today’s lesson we are going to focus on Matthew’s Gospel and Luke’s Gospel.
Children to have Bibles on carpet. Read the story of the birth of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew Mt. 1: 18-2:23 and the Gospel of Luke Lk. 2: 1-14.
Using the PPT ask, show children the following table:
Details found only in Matthew’s Gospel.
Details found only in Luke’s Gospel.
Details found in both Gospel’
Discuss possible reasons for the differences in the two accounts. They are coming from two different people; points of view; written at different times but the basic story is the same.
Briefly recap last lesson. Which two Gospels did we look at? Which story were we reading? Did both Gospels tell the story in
