Common misconception
During the writing process, pupils may find it hard to come up with adjectives to describe the nouns they are using.
Teach the pupils that first we select a noun that will need to be described, then we select the most suitable adjectives to describe them. Encourage pupils to plan their expanded noun phrases first, so they can easily put these into their recount.
