This unit contains a series of writing pictorial prompts with accompanying word walls. It also has several accompanying written responses that can be analysed and serve as reminders to the children to:
vary their sentence starts
vary the length of their sentences
use the word wall when composing sentences about the picture
use capitals at the beginning of each sentence
use full stops, exclamation marks and question marks as appropriate
Connectives or 'joining' words are provided on each slide to encourage more complex sentences.
I use it on a weekly basis to provide a 'short burst' writing task which helps the children to produce 3-5 sentences.
I vary the task by asking the children to respond to the prompt on their white boards as well as within their jotters.
The pictures are clear, colourful and stimulate discussion before writing and can be easily edited and changed to reflect current topic etc.
The models are provided so that the teacher can easily prompt the children to notice a variety of starters , use of connectives and adjectives.
I colour code the sentences - green at the start of each sentence and red for full stops, question marks and exclamation marks at the end.
The unit is an additional writing resource that requires little preparation and complements longer writing tasks. Would be delighted if you could leave feedback.
