Use this resource alongside Burhana Islam’s book Amazing Muslims Who Changed the World to explore modern and historical inspirational figures and write extended creative writing pieces such as a diary entry, an exciting opening to a story and a monologue.
Pupils will engage with three characters from Amazing Muslims Who Changed the World and will learn about their history, before applying their knowledge to three key ‘Big Writes’.
This scheme of work is a great way to celebrate diverse inspirational thinkers, leaders and warriors that challenge our norms and expectations, while also honing children’s creative writing skills.
The resource includes:
- 38-page scheme of work in PowerPoint and PDF format
- Planning worksheet for children
