The range of activities in this unit of work are intended to suggest opportunities around the novel Mr Stink by David Walliams which can be used in English and literacy across the curriculum. There are weblinks to extend and enrich pupils' learning and teachers will identify PSHE opportunities arising from these activities (Homelessness; Bullying; Reasons for keeping a pet, etc).
There are specific activities to teach grammatical aspects of English but teachers will identify further opportunities which should be tailored to children’s needs. The whole unit of work could be completed in about 2 weeks, or extended to half a term’s work using the suggested links.
It is not intended to be a prescriptive unit of work where all activities are worked through slavishly, although it is structured chronologically. Teachers should select from, and adapt, these resources to meet the needs of the pupils they teach.
