This resource can be used to assist with planning as it outlines text features of instruction writing to be covered in lessons and provides progression options for learners of different abilities. It does not provide additional materials e.g. explanatory slides, exemplars or lesson plans for instruction writing. Students would benefit from whole class/small group modelling of how to use success criteria before attempting to use the success criteria independently.
There are 3 levels of differentiation for some resources. The easiest level is suitable for Year 1 students (age 5), the mid level is suitable for Year 2/3 (ages 6-7), and the high level is suitable for Year 3/4/5 (ages 7-9).
