Lesson details
Key learning points
- Activity outside the hive is an important part of the honey-making process.
- The main sections in an explanation text follow a clear, sequenced order.
- Notes should not be written in full sentences and bullet points can be used to make notes clear.
- Facts become increasingly specific throughout one section of an explanation text.
Keywords
Subject-specific vocabulary - vocabulary used when writing about a particular subject
Plan - a framework that writers create before they write a section or whole text
Notes - written out of full sentences
Common misconception
Planning needs to be detailed and include full sentences.
Planning should only have keywords and be written in note-form using bullet points.
