Vikings planning for Upper Key Stage 2

 Welcome to our six-week English scheme of work for Upper Key Stage 2 (P6 and 7) based on ‘She Wolf’ by Dan Smith. We adore the powerful, female protagonist, Ylva: a fiercely strong, young Viking girl who is determined to avenge her mother’s death. 
 
Our 30 x 1 hour English lesson plans will take your class through the text whilst they complete a wide range of differentiated activities. With oracy tasks weaved throughout our entire scheme, your class will enthusiastically discuss the themes and language in the book. All of the grammar objectives are creatively linked to the text: expanded noun phrases, adverbials of time and place, conjunctive adverbs, relative clauses, subordinating conjunctions, figurative language and direct speech. The grammar tasks will provide the children with the skills they need to complete two extended pieces of writing - an explanation text and a predictive narrative. 
Like all our English schemes of work, this six-week unit includes bespoke teaching videos, WAGOLL texts and our hand-drawn images. 
 
When you download our scheme, you will recieve two versions of each week - a fully editable Powerpoint version and a PDF version - so you can use which ever version you and your computer prefer :)
