'Outstanding' Mystery box - story writing lesson

(0)
This lesson focuses on narrative perspectives and develops students' story writing skills. I was observed in this lesson and received an 'outstanding'. You will need to provide your own mystery box (or bag), but I included: a bright red lipstick, a few euros, a ticket stub from Paris, an empty perfume bottle, a scarf, a key and an old polaroid. The students really loved this lesson, so I hope you enjoy it, too! Stretch & challenge embedded throughout. Special extension tasks included at the end of the PowerPoint, which you could print off, put in envelopes and give to the most able.
