Lesson details
Key learning points
- A conclusion is the final paragraph of a text and it gives general information about the subject.
- A conclusion still has a subheading and an introductory sentence and it uses a range of cohesive devices.
- Before we write, we should orally rehearse sentences to ensure our sentences make sense and flow well.
- When we have finished our first draft of our writing, we edit it to improve and refine it.
- Editing includes looking at sentence structures, vocabulary, cohesive devices, spelling and punctuation.
Common misconception
Pupils may have negative attitudes towards editing their work.
Encourage a growth mindset, modelling the idea that all work can be improved and avoiding negative responses to mistakes.
