This Term Primary 6 have been taking part in the National Improving Writing Programme. The class have been writing 3 times a week in 15 minutes slots focusing on very specific targets.<\/p>\n

We took the data from our Pareto chart to see what the class needed to work on first.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The class started with punctuation working on capital letters, full stops, commas, speech marks and apostrophes. Here are examples of punctuation we used highlighted in yellow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The class used the talk for writing style to retell the story of the gingerbread man. Some of the class changed he characters to create their own version of the gingerbread man.\u00a0 We got really good at speech marks using familiar stories!<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Once we achieved this target, we moved onto conjunctions. Conjunctions are highlighted in green. We still needed to remember our punctuation to achieve the target.\u00a0 The class then get 5 minutes to self\/peer mark their work to see if they have reached their target by highlighting their success criteria<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We used a range of different stimulus from Pobble pictures, non fiction writing, well known stories, films and personal writing.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lots of good writing came from using the John Lewis Christmas adverts as a stimulus. Monty the Penguin, and Edgar the Drag were a big success!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our next teaching aim is grammar, which will run from January until the end of the programme in February.<\/p>\n

Here is out class progress report. The red line shows a shift in data, which happens when the class achieve 6 consecutive points above the median line. In other words six lessons where the majority of the class have achieved the teaching aim.\u00a0 The class have worked very hard and are looking forward to focusing on grammar for our final teaching aim which will run until the start of February.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We are very proud of P6 for their amazing progress!<\/p>\n
