Using Cressida Cowell’s How to Train Your Dragon, this resource introduces pupils to the characters and setting of the book, shows them how to use pronouns for descriptive writing, explores punctuating direct speech, looks at plot mapping, teaches them about fronted adverbials and building tension, gets them to write a new chapter for the book, and much more.

- Unit 1 – Core
- Unit 2 – SPaG
- Unit 3 – SPaG
- Unit 4 – Comprehension
- Unit 5 – SPaG
- Unit 6 – Composition
