Procedural Writing learning story



We have been learning to describe a process.
When I write, I need to think about the ideas, structure & language, organization, vocabulary, sentences, spelling and punctuation I use.  


Ideas
Structure and Language
Organization
Vocabulary
Sentence Structure
Spelling

-write using a range of ideas, experiences or items of information
-confidently shape my ideas for effect
-create content that is concise and relevant to the curriculum task
-support my ideas with precise detail
-uses ‘show not tell’ when appropriate
-deliberately choose a clear, controlled and logical text structure to suit the audience and purpose
-show creativity and innovation when creating texts for my audience
-choose appropriate adjective, verbs, nouns and adverbs.
-write in structured, well developed paragraphs that flow well from one to the next within the text
-use linking words and phrases to link paragraphs for effect
-Use a bullet point or number to separate the different steps
-maintain audience interest through content, humour and language choices
-use language that is suitable to the topic and purpose, and discuss these choices with others
-deliberately use written and visual language features when appropriate to enhance my writing; e.g similes, metaphors, personification, hyperbole, rhetorical question and diagrams
-use a range of precise vocabulary to communicate meaning
-use a variety of sentence structures, beginnings and lengths to give effect
-use complex sentences that are grammatically correct
-use some conjunctions correctly eg: FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so)
-use some complex sentences
-write all basic sound and spelling patterns and use spelling rules to write unknown words
-spell words correctly by drawing on knowledge of how words work
-use all basic punctuation independently
-attempt more complex punctuation (eg semicolons, colons, parentheses).

Here is a piece of writing I did this term.  

I was writing to describe the process that enables a lightbulb to turn on.  Notice how I used feedback to improve my work.
-electricity
-light
-energy
-lightbulb
-battery  

Start writing here:How to make a light bulb work. Is that you will need electricity, so the electricity forms to the light to make the light have energy. energy makes things move like a robot and also do stuff.  
In a light bulb, you will need to have a battery and the battery is called the power source.That's where the electricity comes from and also in a light bulb there's no gaps like a train.


Buddy Feedback: you need to put a comma in the first line where the Electricity- Ebony



Teacher Feedback:  Abigail, you have some key words like electricity, light, energy, lightbulb, battery.  You have got capitals in the middle of your sentences. Don’t start a sentence with a contraction like ‘also’.  Where are your paragraphs?
