Using the exciting theme of Dinosaurs, students build and expand sentences about dinosaurs and prehistoric environments while learning how a small amount of carefully chosen detail can create a much clearer picture for the reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross five carefully structured lessons, students progress from recognising where details in sentences to adding their own information and applying their learning independently.

They learn to ask Where did it happen? and experiment with details such as in the forest, beside the river, between the trees and inside the cave. The dinosaur theme provides an engaging context for describing movement and action across a variety of prehistoric settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the week progresses, students build increasingly detailed sentences while drawing on their previous learning about complete sentences, describing words and action words.
