Unit overview:
In this unit the children will read ‘Tell me a Dragon’ by Jackie Morris and explore the descriptions of a different dragon on each page. The children will orally describe some images of dragons.  They will then make inferences about the dragon and sequence each dragon from the book. Using different images of dragons, the children will be asked to write simple noun phrases to describe their dragon. Building upon this, they will make simple sentences using the possessive apostrophe to describe each dragon. The use of an exclamation sentence will also be taught to add variation to the children’s dragon descriptions. Using their knowledge of dragons, the children will then plan and draft their own description of a dragon. This will then be published beautifully to create a ‘Dragon Description Booklet’ for the classroom library area.
