A. Compulsory plus optional
Here, the teacher sets pupils targets
such as With your partner, write 2
sentences or more, or In your group,
write 5 words or more. The minimum
target (2 sentences, 5 words) is
compulsory, and everyone needs to
achieve this to be successful. But the
‘or more’ is optional, and gives a
chance for more proficient language
pupils to challenge themselves.
Some pupils will stop at the minimum
target at first, but with more practice,
they will soon get the idea of going
beyond the minimum target.
B. Remember and share
If pupils are asked to remember and
share, they have to tell the teacher
words or ideas they learned in a
previous lesson or task (e.g. Look at
the objects on my table. In one
minute, I’ll cover them… Now, share
with your group what you remember.
Make a list together and then tell

A good way to encourage pupils to use
paragraphs in a story is to introduce this
idea at the planning stage. A story map
or story mountain with boxes can help
children to think about each paragraph
before they start writing. For a non-fiction
text, teacher can introduce a spider
diagram with sub-headings for making
notes on.
59
LEARNING STANDARDS
CONTENT STANDARDS NOTES
YEAR 4 YEAR 5
A spider diagram encourages pupils
to arrange their notes into separate
boxes according to theme. This means
that when they come to write their notes
up into sentences, they will know that
their text needs to be split into different
paragraphs. Teachers often find that
when pupils write a first draft of their
