of view. They explain how their choices of language features and images are used.
Students create detailed texts elaborating on key ideas for a range of purposes and audiences. They make presentations and contribute actively to class and
group discussions, using a variety of strategies for effect. They demonstrate an understanding of grammar, and make considered vocabulary choices to
enhance cohesion and structure in their writing. They use accurate spelling and punctuation for clarity and make and explain editorial choices based on
criteria.
Year 7
Receptive modes (listening, reading and viewing)
By the end of Year 7, students understand how text structures can influence the complexity of a text and are dependent on audience, purpose and context.
They demonstrate understanding of how the choice of language features, images and vocabulary affects meaning.
Students explain issues and ideas from a variety of sources, analysing supporting evidence and implied meaning. They select specific details from texts to
develop their own response, recognising that texts reflect different viewpoints. They listen for and explain different perspectives in texts.
Productive modes (speaking, writing and creating)
Students understand how the selection of a variety of language features can influence an audience. They understand how to draw on personal knowledge,
textual analysis and other sources to express or challenge a point of view. They create texts showing how language features and images from other texts can
be combined for effect.
Students create structured and coherent texts for a range of purposes and audiences. They make presentations and contribute actively to class and group
discussions, using language features to engage the audience. When creating and editing texts they demonstrate understanding of grammar, use a variety of
more specialised vocabulary and accurate spelling and punctuation.

Lesson Outline:
Introduction:
To begin the lesson, have students at their desk and explain that they are going to watch a short film.
Play Soar by Alyce Tzue on the IWB. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDkpVwrhYfo
After students have watched the short film pose the question: what text type was this short film?
Lead the class in a discussion about the structure of a narrative in relation to Soar: orientation, complication, resolution. Use the
whiteboard to write down brainstorm ideas.
Building The Field:
Activity 1
Sort student into groups of 4, and give them an A3 piece of paper which had a concave line that is labelled with orientation, complication
and resolution.
When students are in their groups ask them to label the events of Soar onto the piece of paper. Have the list all the different events of
the short film that followed that line.
Once students have finished this activity, have a whole class discussion of the different events in Soar that followed the plot line.
Activity 2
Have students write a short narrative based on Soar, as it is a short film with no word.
Instruct them to focus on the structure of a narrative when writing.
Conclusion:
Ask is any students they wish to share their narratives, or ideas they have used?
Collect students Writing books to read their stories.

Teaching Strategy/Learning Activity:

Group activity: this allows students to work collaboratively and to share their ideas.
As a teacher: directing the class discussion and brainstorm will allow students to engage deeply within the lesson. Also proving students with
the support they need to understand the structure of a narrative. Assessing students ability to work successfully in a group.
Pre or post assessment strategies:
Pre-assessment will be used when reading over students narratives. This will provide the teacher with the opportunity to assess students
levels of readiness and their understanding of narrative structures.
Any special considerations: (Consider the students with special needs or the particular needs of your class or school)
Special considerations will need to be made for a student within the class that have a vision impairment. This student may need to
closer to the IWB when soar is being played
Considerations will need to be made also for students with learning difficulties the teacher may need to give them more explicit
instruction.
Consideration may need to be made for some students, by giving them the option of typing their story instead of writing it in their book.
Reflection:
How did the lesson go?
What would I change is I were to teach this lesson again?
What was successful?
Were the students engaged?

Lesson Outline:
Introduction:
To being this lesson have the students sitting at their desks. Pose questions to students about what we did last lesson and focus on the
structure of a narrative. Give whole class feedback about what the class done well in their narratives from last lesson. Also give some
constructive feedback about what students can improve on.
Lead the discussion is saying how descriptive language is something that makes your writing more engage. Ask students: why they think this is
the case?
Building the field:

Activity 1:
Present the class with a basketball, and write on the board the basketball is orange. Explain to the class that even though this sentence
describes the ball it could be improved to be more engaging. Pass the ball around the classroom and as it goes around have students list
words that describe the ball, encourage them to be creative, thinking about what it looks like, feels like smells like etc. As students list off the
words and scribe them on the whiteboard. After there is a collection of words on the board, model how construct a sentence that is more
interesting them just the basketball is orange. Modelling how to construct a more engaging sentence will allow students to see how to improve
their own construction and descriptive sentences. Have students write as many sentence describing the basketball from the boards. Invite
students to share these to the rest of the class. Give positive feedback on different suggestions students more and thank them for sharing.
Activity 2:
Explain to the class the next activity. Students will be placed into groups and rotate clockwise around at 6 different stations. At each station will
be a different object. As a group they will have to share and write down on the A3 piece of paper all the different wow words they can think of
to describe the object. Students will then need to write as many creative and descriptive sentence as they can in the writing books.
As they rotate though the stations they will add to the words previous groups have added. Towards the end of the rotations the teacher may
need to make the rotation times shorter. Remind students to think of words that describe how it feels, smells, what it looks like etc. As students
go around visit different groups and observe students group work.
These A3 pages filled with wow words will be displayed around the classroom for students to refer when writing.
Conclusion:
To conclude the lesson, bring students back together for class discussion. Ask students if there is anything that they learnt in todays lesson.
And what if there was anything they enjoyed about the lesson?
- Objects: Apple, stapler, flower, trophy, tea cup, paint brush, watch, basketball.
- Whiteboard
- Students writing books
- 7 pieces of A3 paper

Recapping the pervious lesson allows student to remember what was previously discussed
Modelling activities allows for students to gain an understanding of the task they will be undertaking. It also gives the teacher an opportunity to
explicitly model what they want students to do.
Brainstorming allows for the class to share they ideas but also gives students that may not understand a concept different view point from other
students responding.
The use of group work allows students to work together and collaborate ideas, it also gives the teacher the opportunity to group students with a
high level readiness with a student that may need further assistant.

The teacher will be able to collect students workbooks to read and assess their development of descriptive sentences.
The teachers observation of group work and contribution during class discussion can be used to gain an understanding for students that may
need further assistance.
Special consideration will need to be made for a student with a vison impairment as this student may need to be placed close to the board to
see the brainstorm notes.
Differentiation grouped can be formed for the group work to support students that need further assistant.
Reflection:
How did the lesson go? What went well?
What did not go well? How will you improve for next time?
were the assessment activities suitable?
LESSON PLAN 3

Marks recap.
Lesson Number: 3
AC: English Standard:(highlight relevant)
They analyse and explain how language features, images and vocabulary are used by different authors to represent ideas, characters and
events.(ACARA 2017)
They demonstrate understanding of how the choice of language features, images and vocabulary affects meaning. (ACARA 2017)
AC: English content descriptors (secondary, helps you think about how you will meet the standard)
Analyse and explain the ways text structures and language features shape meaning and vary according to audience and purpose
(ACELY1721)
Lesson Outcome/intentions: (Within the unit what particular skills or knowledge are focussed on in this lesson?)
Understand how to effectively implement speech marks within texts
Understand how to use correct punctuation within their writing.
factors
Lesson Outline:
Introduction: (How best to motivate and explain the importance of these lessons. i.e. connected to artefacts from home)
To being the lesson have on the interactive whiteboard a paragraph of text that has no punctuation and pose the question: what is
missing from this paragraph.
Read the paragraph aloud to demonstrate that without punctuation reading becomes difficult and the meaning of the text is lost.
Ask students to come up add parts of punctuation that needs to be added.

Inform student how to correctly use speech marks within their text.
Play this video about speech marks for students: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLB1IUNdoSE
Discuss what was learnt from the video or what they already know.
On the interactive whiteboard bring up the punctuation cheat sheet and run through the rules of speech marks.
Building the Field:

Activity 1:
Place students in pairs give them the worksheet that a story that has no punctuation or capital letters and ask them to work together to
in all the punctuation they know needs to be added. The punctuation that needs to be added are: . , ! ?
Bring the class back together as discuss the activity, what was difficult/easy? Did they enjoy the challenge?
Activity 2:
Have students write a paragraph of text that is a conversation between two people. This will give them the opportunity to practise using
speech marks.
Remind students of the rules of speech marks
Have students swap with a person in the class to see for them to check if correct punctuation was used.
Conclusion:
Ask students what they learnt this lesson/ what it helped them to remember.
Have students fill in an exit card before they leave with a two sentence that need punctuation added.
Interactive Whiteboard

Story with no punctuation worksheet
Students workbooks
Exit card

The use of a video gives students a different way of learning/ recalling information. It is an engaging short clip that informs students how to
correctly use speech marks and punctuation.
Partner work was used to give students a change to collaborate and share their knowledge of punctuation and speech marks.
Peer assessment was used for students to become the experts and assess whether their partner has used speech marks correctly.
It may also be helpful to provide students with a punctuation cheat sheet to refer to when writing.
The exit card is used for the teacher to do a quick check in on students understanding of punctuations. It will give the provide the teacher with
and understanding of who understands punctuation and who needs further help.
Special considerations will need to be made for students that struggle to understand how to use correct punctuation, the may need a
differentiated task.
The teacher will need to pair students together that they know work well together.
Reflection:
How well did the lesson go?
Is there anything I would change?
Was the video helpful in explaining speech marks?
LESSON PLAN 4
BIG IDEA: Sentence structures- Wow Sentences Literature or text type: Narratives Year Level: 6/7
Lesson Number: 4
Understand how the use of text structures can achieve particular effects. They analyse and explain how language features, images and
vocabulary are used by different authors to represent ideas, characters and events. (ACARA 2017)

understanding of how the choice of language features, images and vocabulary affects meaning. (ACARA 2017)
Understand how ideas can be expanded and sharpened through careful choice of verbs, elaborated tenses and a range of adverb
groups/phrases (ACELA1523)
- Students will gain an understanding of how to construct a wow sentence

- Use sentences to successfully present an engaging text
- How sentence structure can affect the effectiveness of a text.
factors
Lesson Outline:
Introduction: (How best to motivate and explain the importance of these lessons. i.e. connected to artefacts from home)
- Being the lesson by asking the question, what makes a wow sentence?
- Record students answers on the board.
- Explain that a sentence when writing narrative should be structured so that the reader is able to create a visualisation in their head. Give
the example, what does falls clumsily look like? ask students to provide examples of what this looks like, and write the answers on the
board.
Building the field:

Activity 1:
- Watch the first minute of Soar by Alyce Tzue and ask students to write various sentences describing what happens. Instruct them to
think about how they can describe what is happening which will allow someone who hasnt seen a model plane fly then fall look like.
Activity 2:
- Write a paragraph describing an action of their choosing. Give students examples to give them inspiration eg. Kicking a football, riding a
bike, falling down the stairs.
- Have students to work in pairs to read each others descriptive sentence. Instruct students to give each other constructive feedback.
Conclusion:
- Invite students to share any of the sentences they have written to the rest of the class.
- Exit card, have students write a descriptive sentence about biting into an apple.
- Interactive whiteboard
- Whiteboard & markers
- Soar by Alyce Tzue
- Students writing books
- Exit cards.

Modelling creating wow sentences gives students an understanding how to convert sentences to be creative and allows the reader to
visualise what is happening in the text.
Exit cards allows the teacher to check in with students readiness and understanding of how to construct a wow sentence.

The exit card will be used as a formative assessment to assess students ability to write a wow sentence. Constructive feedback will written on
the exit cards and returned to students.
Reading and giving feedback in students workbooks will also be done at this stage in the unit.
Special consideration will be made for students with learning difficulties, and for those who need extra help constructing sentences. The
teacher may choose to run a mini tutorial during the lesson for those who need extra help writing sentences.
What will students produce?

How well did the lesson go?
What would I change for next lesson?
Do I need further resources to help students understand wow sentences?
Was the lesson meaningful and engaging?
LESSON PLAN 5
BIG IDEA: Narrative Writing Literature or text type: Narrative Year Level: 6/7
Lesson Number: 5
When creating and editing texts they demonstrate understanding of grammar, use a variety of more specialised vocabulary and accurate
spelling and punctuation. (ACARA 2017)
They demonstrate an understanding of grammar, and make considered vocabulary choices to enhance cohesion and structure in their writing
They explain how their choices of language features and images are used. (ACARA 2017)
Students understand how the selection of a variety of language features can influence an audience. They understand how to draw on personal
knowledge, textual analysis and other sources to express or challenge a point of view. They create texts showing how language features and
images from other texts can be combined for effect. (ACARA 2017)
Plan, draft and publish imaginative, informative and persuasive texts, choosing and experimenting with text structures, language features,
images and digital resources appropriate to purpose and audience (ACELY1714)
Use a range of software, including word processing programs, to confidently create, edit and publish written and multimodal texts
(ACELY1728)
- Students will be creating narratives that will be used for summative assessment
- Students will fill a narrative planner to help construct their narrative.
- Narratives will be written on the class laptops on the program Word
factors
Lesson Outline:
Introduction:
Begin the lesson by creating a brainstorm on the whiteboard, by asking how can we create an engaging narrative? Prompt students to think
about what they have learnt in the previous lessons leading up to today. Add all students suggesting to the whiteboard.
Introduce students to their next writing assessment, which is to write a creative free choice narrative. Instruct students to consider all that we
have been working on when writing their narratives, such as narrative structure, speech marks, punctuation, wow words and wow sentence.
Building the Field:

Explain to the class that before they start writing their narratives that they will need to fill in a narrative organiser (see appendix 1). Give a
demonstration on the board with the assistance and input of students to fill in the narrative organiser on the interactive white board. Modelling
filling in the organiser will ensure students understand how to use it when planning. The narrative organiser will allow students to plot out their
narratives which will guide them in their writing.
Instruct students to write a creative narrative that is entertaining and uses descriptive language. As it is an free choice narrative students may
have a hard time coming up with ideas for their narrative so a jar full of pop sticks with narrative started will be at the front of the classroom for
students to access during the lesson. You can also instruct students to write about the short film Soar by Alyce Tzue, or twist a fairy tale such
as little red riding hood etc.
During the lesson, take a small of students that need extra support to ensure they know how to fill in the narrative organiser and are on track
with their plot.
Once students have shown you their narrative organiser they may get a laptop to being writing their narrative. In the middle of the lesson ask
students to hold up their thumps, up is they are feeling good, in the middle if they are feeling okay or down if they need help. This will give you
an idea of who may need further help.
Conclusion:
At the end of the lesson, instruct students to save their work to the laptop. Bring students back together as a class to ask students how they
went with writing their narrative. Students will get extra time to work on their narratives each morning during the week until the next double
lesson.
Resources:
- Laptops
- Narrative planner worksheet (see appendix 1)
- Whiteboard
- Jar full off pop sticks with narrative starters for inspiration
By providing a narrative organiser to students it gives them a clear way to lay out their narrative. It gives them a way to plot out their narrative
which will assist them when typing up their stories.
Recapping the previous lessons always the teacher to ensure they understand how to construct a creative and entertaining narrative. Creating
a brainstorm also always for students to pull together all that they have learnt and understanding that by pulling what they have learnt together
will allow them to create an engaging narrative.

Formative assessment will be used by checking students narrative organisers to see if they understand narrative structures. Observations will
also be made during the lesson and checking in with various students to ensure they are on track.
Any special considerations:

Special considerations will be made for students that need extra help in writing their narratives. The teacher will be able to put time aside
during the lesson to help these students where they may be struggling.
Special considerations will be made for a student within the class that has a vision impairment. SSO may be used to asset students with typing
their stories.
Reflection:
Did the narrative organiser assist students in writing their narratives?
What will I change for future lessons?
Were the instructions of the assessment good?
Were students on task?
LESSON PLAN 6
BIG IDEA: Editing and peer assessing narratives. Literature or text type: Narrative Year Level: 6/7
Lesson Number: 6

Lesson Outcome/intentions: (Within the unit what particular skills or knowledge are focussed on in this lesson?)
- Edit and proof read narratives

- Peer assessment of narratives and provide each other with constructive feedback.
- Hand up final narrative for assessment
factors
Lesson Outline:
Introduction:
- On the whiteboard run through the expectations of todays lesson, which is to finish typing narratives and then have them peer
assessed.
Building the Field:

Activity 1:
- Have students print off their narratives them read them looking for any grammar errors and final editing they will need to make
- Ensure students that they will need to had these up with their good copy.
Activity 2:
- Once students have finished their narratives instruct them to print off two copies. one copy will be used for peer assessment and the
other copy will be handed up to the teach.
- During peer assessment instruct students to not look for grammatical errors in others work but look for things students have done will.
The peer assessment handout will instruct students to look for narrative structure and descriptive language.
Conclusion:
- Conclude the lesson by commending students hard work and effort that was put into their final narratives.
Resources:
- Laptops
- Peer assessment handout
- Whiteboard and markers
The use of peer assessment allows students to read provide other students with constructive feedback. It gives them a change to view
someone elses narrative for what they are being assessed on.
Students also learn the strategy of editing their own work

Summative assessment will be undertaken as it is the end of the unit. Students narratives will be assessed for narrative structure and
use effective descriptive language.
Any special considerations:
Considerations will be made for students that needed extra support throughout the unit. The teacher need to run though narratives with
students and talk them thought the editing process.
Refection:

Did the narrative organiser assist students in writing their narratives?
What will I change for future lessons?
Was the overall unit successful? What would I change for future reference?
