Welcome to
Manor Leas Junior Academy
Within the EEF report there is clear guidance on modelling the five stages of writing:
planning
drafting
revising
editing
publishing
As part of our continuing staff development, we will be revisiting these five stages of writing when using our pathways units.
Our ethos is to establish a gradual release of responsibility so that pupils see teachers modelling the process of writing. Then become a scribe for their ideas, showing how to select from a pool of options. From here, we encourage pupils to ‘have a go’ at constructing a sentence themselves. Once this process is complete, pupils should feel more confident at continuing to write independently.
