Stone Age fully resourced English Planning: The Wild Way Home

 
If you are looking for a gripping Stone Age text for mature Year 3 and 4 learners (ages 7-9), then look no further! We have based our thirty fully resourced English lessons on ‘The Wild Way Home’ by Sophie Kirtley. The text follows Charlie as he runs away from a problem... and surprisingly finds himself back in the Stone Age! 
 
Your class will be fully immersed in their Stone Age learning through a range of grammar activities: expanded noun phrases; figurative language; coordinating and subordinating conjunctions; present perfect form of verbs, prepositions, adverbials of time and manner and fronted adverbials. 
The children will demonstrate their knowledge of the grammar techniques in three extended pieces of writing: poetry, an explanation text, and a diary recount. Like all of our fully resourced English lessons, included in your download are easy to follow lesson plans; bespoke teaching videos carefully linked to the text; WAGOLL texts; scaffolded activities to enable all learners to achieve (supporting adaptive teaching); and our hand-drawn images.  
 
If you are trying to decide between our fully resourced English lessons based on ‘The Wild Way Home’ and our fully resourced English lessons based upon ‘Nell and the Cave Bear’, we would advise that ‘Nell and the Cave Bear’ is a more light-hearted Stone Age text, with a more sensitive and humorous storyline and more accessible vocabulary.  Therefore, you can think about your cohort of children and decide which is the most suitable Stone Age text for them.  
 
We have included both the editable Power Point version and a PDF version in your download.
