Activities in this teaching pack include a template to record illustrations and sentences to show the sequence of events that can occur in a narrative story about a problem that could have been caused by a family pet based on reading a fiction story by a significant author.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to sequence different events to use in a story matching the structure and content of a narrative text 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.
