GoldPoetry: Tales of the 1001 Arabian Nights - In the Sultan's Palace
This resource has been produced in collaboration with the National Association for the Teaching of English (NATE). The Teaching Sequence for Writing is still the recommended approach to the teaching of reading and writing. Children have opportunities to listen to, read, enjoy and write poetry. They will listen to an audio poem, The Magic Box, then read a poem linked to the 1001 Arabian Nights and write their own similarly-themed poem.
This resource can be easily adapted to the needs of your class, and can cover several lessons. It comprises: a PDF file, which indexes the accompanying PowerPoint, a Word document of the audio poem, The Magic Box, and the PowerPoint presentation (the main body of the resource).
The original illustrations are supplied by kind permission of Stella Perrett, Radical Cartoons. The links within the resources were correct at the time of publication (March 2023).
