Using a video to motivate students for writing
Focus: to write a report and to use descriptive vocabulary
Self and peer reviewing of writing is most successful when students have a routine and agreed systems. For example, using a coloured pen to make corrections and improvements; using a yellow highlighted to identify successes based on the success criteria.
Refer to Chapter 6 of The Writing Book for more information on self-checks and partner-checks.
The signs are designed to provide students with a visual reminder to complete their self-checks and partner-checks.
A pdf of both signs, and a jpg version of each sign is included.
Check out our YouTube video on supporting students to edit their writing.
Did you know we have Self-check and Partner-check stamps? Digital versions are available in the Graphics Package.
