Writing Early Stage One Term 2

The focus for Term 2 will be to construct and know the requirements of good sentence structure and must realise the importance of the fact that the sentence must make sense to those who read it.
Have sentence starters and high frequency words on cards for students that require support with their writing. Construction Modelling of sentences. Include the use of sentences from authentic texts that demonstrate the sentence structure being taught. e.g. Theres a Sea in My Bedroom by Margaret Wild descriptive language. But he liked collecting shells. He had fan-shaped ones, some that looked like trumpets and some that looked like curved animals teeth. They were yellow and grey and pink and purple. I Joint construction of sentences. Write words on cards so that a range of sentence structures can be demonstrated. am catching tadpoles .

(present tense) I (past tense) For emergent writers begin by having them trace over dotted or outline of words in the sentence. caught tadpoles .

Provide a match to sample for them to glue words to.

This is my house .

Next provide sentence on a strip of paper for them to copy from. This is my house.
