This resource contains work for a whole lesson (or two) based on writing an informal letter - aimed at KS4 students.

Activities include:
- reminder of assessment objectives (new spec) and mark schemes;
- Discussion of informal letters, their purpose and who writes/reads them;
- Mind-mapping class ideas to structure their own writing;
- Model paragraphs - with discussion prompts for how to improve them;
-Peer and self-assessment grids.
- An additional task has been included at the end for either homework, revision or a in-class timed response that could be peer or teacher-marked.

This is tailored to the WJEC/Eduqas mark scheme, assessment objectives could easily be replaced to suit your exam board.

Motivating texts for KS4. Clear layout for formal letters. The students would gain a lot from the clarity and use of colour. Lots of editing needed before using with students! Most of the self/peer assessments are written for reports. These are irrelevant to the letters and mean the pack is entirely missing the promised checklists for informal and formal letters. Also, the second slide on the 'informal letters' refers to them as 'reports' and so includes aspects that don't belong to the genre.
