Write Like A…
Each of Vocabulary Ninja’s ‘Write Like A…’ packs have 6 essential question to challenge every classroom pupil, as they demonstrate their understanding from the learning that has taken place during the unit. Vocabulary Ninja’s ‘Write Like A…’ series has been created to inspire, support and embed authentic writing opportunities across the curriculum, whilst reducing the workload demands of the classroom practitioner. ‘Write Like A’ resources gather the essential technical and topic vocabulary required to answer a specific question with varying levels on complexity.
Each pack contains 6 different possible questions to be answered. Each set of questions have been carefully crafted to match the essential knowledge and expectations associated with each curriculum unit. In answering the question, pupils are challenged to utilise the increasingly complex vocabulary to scaffold their answer to the question. In doing so, pupils will be able to demonstrate the knowledge and understanding they have developed during that unit of learning.
The ’Write Like A…’ series offers a way to focus and drive the content that schools wish for their pupils to learn and more importantly, retain. By choosing a question to begin with, class teachers can tailor units of work toward a final writing outcome.
