    Term 2: Week 3

       

    Plan: Formal Writing 2.0 

    Hi everyone! You have survived your first assessment for the year - well done!! I will begin marking these now but please be mindful of the fact I that I have over 120 to mark! It's that part of term again where we go back to Formal Writing for 2 weeks (as previously mentioned, 2 weeks per beginning of term are always dedicated to formal writing in preparation for your end of year test). Without further ado, here is your weekly plan: 

    Tuesday (S2)


    - Using the PEEL Paragraph template on Google Classroom, write 1 or 2 sentences in each of the boxes provided using the topic "Netflix should be free during lockdown". 


    Thursday (S4)

    - Write a PEEL paragraph on the topic "Te Reo Maori should be compulsory for all students in New Zealand". Upload these on Google Classroom 

    - Watch the following clip on simple PEEL Paragraphs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1tZ3uiOa_A

    - Re-write your paragraph, going further in-depth with the topic (be more specific) using the example in the clip to guide you
