Overview: this plan is a 2-week+ sequence which is highly interactive, discussion-based and creative, aimed at Reception. This unit follows the School Literacy Network (SLN) process: Read – Immerse – Analyse – Plan – Write – Revise – Share. Through the work in this unit, pupils will have plenty of fun discussions about all the choices we ourselves make and that are shown in Nick Sharratt’s rich illustrations. Pupils will practise key fine and gross motor skills through a variety of choosing warm ups and will eventually consider what they would choose to be when they grow up. This classic, well-loved text is sure to inspire and open up the discussions around the wonderful world of choice.
