Activities in this teaching pack include a template to proof read and correct errors and mistakes in story writing about some of the problems that might be caused by a family to use when redrafting and publishing a final copy of the narrative.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to draft and edit a narrative story to illustrate alternative conflict and resolution for the main character in a story about a family pet.

This lesson is part of an English scheme of work to get the children to plan and write a story based on a book by a significant author about an animal kept as a pet by a family, explore words with ge spellings and use apostrophes to show possession. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
