Lesson details
Key learning points
- Information in the adaptations section is specific for the reader.
- Text cohesion refers to how a piece of writing flows, engages the reader and achieves its purpose.
- Brackets can be used for parenthesis.
- Planning is an essential part of the writing process.
- Plans should include notes, bullet points and initial ideas that can be developed further when writing.
Common misconception
Pupils may want to list adaptations in their plan without explaining how they benefit survival.
Make explicit reference to functions of adaptations throughout the planning stage and set aside space on plans to refer to each function.
