Explore fantasy as a genre. After working in small groups to identify literary elements in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis, class members share their work and then use the presentations to help them prepare to write their own fantasy stories. Pupils review the writing process before outlining and composing original stories. This process will probably take longer than the suggested hour.
