This resource contains a model text of a narrative story. Explore this with your class as a good example of what you might expect them to write. Give children time to read the model text, analyse the vocabulary and sentence structures used and decide which elements they might want to use in their own writing.

Pupils can then use the writing frame to create their own narrative story. They may want to write out a first draft in their books and use this worksheet for a final copy to be proudly presented on the classroom wall. Encourage children to use all the ideas, vocabulary and editing techniques they have learnt to produce a high-quality piece of writing.

The teaching PowerPoint for this unit of work includes the model text and a blank writing frame for you to model writing techniques. It could be where you do a shared write to guide and inspire writers.
