Year 2:
WRITING - Composing Using the template provided
yesterday you are going to
organise your ideas and write them
into full sentences in your book.
Remember you need to write the
Title and each sub-heading. Under
each sub-heading you need to
write at least 1-2 sentences. Make
sure you read your sentences to
check if they make sense. When
writing about the piranhas’
appearance make sure you include
some adjectives so the reader has
a good description of what
piranhas look like.
Example of ADJECTIVES:
WRITING - Editing and Revising Today you are going to add some more information to your sub-headings. You might want to watch a clip or read a factual text that will provide you with more information about what piranhas look like and what they can do or how they move. https://www.coolkidfacts.com/piranhas-facts/ You are going to add some more facts to each of the sub-headings. Once you have finished have a family member check your work to see if it makes sense. Then you are going to check your writing for any mistakes. You might want to use a different coloured pencil to edit your work. Check that you have;
• Capital letters at the beginning of sentences
• Full stops at the end of sentences
• Words are spelt correctly
?v=szrSxXApyao 2. Retell it to yourself in the

it on SEESAW to your teacher. WRITING- Publishing You are going to publish your information report. You could write it out again neatly without any mistakes and draw a piranha, type it up on word and paste a picture of a piranha, create a PowerPoint with your information and pictures to match each sub-heading.

Today you are going to record as much information as you can about piranhas in point form so that you can quickly get your ideas down. Using the template provided you are to organise your ideas under each sub-heading and use 2-3 words each. You are not to write in full sentences as remember this is your plan that will help you write your information report.
