Excellent Editing - Presentation
This presentation has been created to guide students through an introduction to editing their writing. It focuses on making writing ‘5 Star Writing’ by looking at the following:
These include:
- Capitalisation- Have I used capital letters where I need them?
- Punctuation- Do all my sentences end with punctuation?
- Spelling- Have I used strategies I know to sound out words?
- Clarity- Can I add, delete, move or replace words to improve the meaning of my text?
- Presentation- Is my work neat and legible?
The presentation goes through these concepts with examples to model each strategy. The unit is aimed at Year 2 students and is part of a larger unit- Excellent Editing- Year 2.
Learning goals
- We are learning to re-read and edit text for spelling, sentence punctuation and text structure.
- We are learning to identify the different text structures and language features of different types of texts, e.g. narratives, recounts, information reports, simple procedures, expression of opinion and responses to texts.
- We are learning to innovate on familiar texts by experimenting with character, setting or plot and by adding prepositional phrases to improve descriptions.
- We are learning to create short imaginative, informative and persuasive multimodal texts using text structures, language and grammatical features appropriate to the audience and purpose.
- We are learning to create and edit imaginative texts by using or adapting language features, characters, settings and plot structures, e.g. changing the setting, revising an ending.
- We are learning to plan, draft and publish imaginative, informative and persuasive texts using text structures and language features appropriate to the audience and purpose.
