1 National Curriculum 2014 English Medium Term Plans Y4 This document provides English medium term plans for a single year group. They have been organised to ensure they provide both a suggested sequence for a wide range of text types and story genres relevant for the age group and progression through the National Curriculum statements. The plans include the statements for - comprehension, - composition and - vocabulary, grammar and punctuation. The plans are organised to show National Curriculum statements relevant to every unit plan and these are found in the Continuous Objectives box for either reading or writing. The remaining statements are placed where they were felt to be most relevant to build progression through learning. This does mean, however, if the units used out of sequence, teachers will need to ensure they consider which statements may need to be reordered. Some plans have been written to contain only reading objectives, in order to have a short focus on specific genres or aspects of reading comprehension. Teachers could, of course, choose to add a writing element to these. Teachers with mixed age classes will also need to adapt the plans to ensure the relevant statements, specific to each of the year groups being taught, are included in their plans. Occasionally, where statements contain a number of elements, there is a suggestion made as to which element should be the focus for that unit. The suggested focus is written in italics at the end of the relevant statement. With the statements and terminology required for - vocabulary, grammar and punctuation, once introduced their continued focus is implied rather than stated in every plan. They are explicitly stated again when new learning requires an additional focus to embed and build on something previously learned. For example, capital letters and full stops are initially introduced alongside simple sentences but when compound sentences are introduced children would need to be taught how to apply them to this new type of sentence, so the relevant statement and terminology is repeated. For ease of use, the - vocabulary, grammar and punctuation statements have been coded to correspond to the statements in Appendix 2 as follows: S - Sentence; T - Text; P - Punctuation.
