Lessons concentrate on the teaching of writing with a sharp focus on the craft and
construction of sentences. Each Sentence Stacking lesson is organised into three learning
chunks. Sentences created by pupils should be celebrated and examples used to form a large
class Sentence Stack. This Sentence Stack should build over the duration of the unit to display
the whole piece of text. See appendix for example of complete teacher model for this unit.
