Talk for Writing

This half-term,  the pupils in Year 5 are expected to produce an explanation text, focusing on the water cycle.

According to writing experts, pupils produce high-quality writing after they have familiarised themselves with the language and structure in a similar writing piece. Therefore, we text-mapped an explanation text on how materials change state (using just icons and a few words).

Here is a sneak peak:

PS. Look out for our explanation texts on the water cycle!

  1. I think the water cycle is interesting and how materials change state. Maybe you can ask Mrs Tibbits if we can do a Talk for Writing performance.

  2. It was kind of hard when we were first learning it, but it gets really easy the more days we practised it. Also it was quite nerve-racking when i was getting recorded on camera, but i loved it. Hope you guys have an amazing day!

  3. I absolutely loved talk for writing, i hope we can do it again but this time in front of the whole school!!
