A scaffold to support children looking at model texts and unpicking their key elements e.g. purpose, vocab/ phrases, writer techniques e.g. rhetorical questions, short sentences, personification, modal verbs, etc. This helps children build up an understanding of the intended impact of the text and how the writer creates this. From here children understand the ‘steps to success’ or ‘writer’s toolkit’ or whatever you may call it!
Simply print pages 2 and 3 back to back and create as many pages as you want to go inside the front cover and create a booklet. Children can add key history vocab as it is taught and carry this up through school with them as a handy reference booklet.
The page page offers some quick paired games for when there is a spare few minutes to recap and revise!
