Activities in this teaching pack include shared reading texts to identify how to format and structure a recount about something that happened in the weather from different viewpoints and a vocabulary word bank to help select fronted adverbials to use in sentences about the weather to say when, where or how something happened.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to make improvements to a recount text about a rainstorm happening at the school.

This lesson is part of an English scheme of work to get the children to read and analyse the structure and content of recounts about the weather and write sentences from different viewpoints. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
