Of mice and Men!!!

Sometimes we plan things without using our brains!!!!!!

Your term planner for English is a very good example.

It seem like I had a mental blackout at the time of writing!

So the new planner is now on the blog.

Everything in yellow has been replanned to fit in with the planners of my two colleagues working with your fellow "stud" students.

Let's start off by going through this together.

So today we are going to look at Skolverket's resources for the national test....

Tomorrow you will practise the "WRITING" section.

Here are two good links to help you
1. Bedömning/assessment of writing

2. Examples of different parts of the national test

The title of the essay which is marked is called "The good life"
Here is the paper which the students got.

Here is an essay on "E" grade level

Here is an essay on "C" grade level

Here is an essay on "A" grade level

What differences do you see between them?

Tomorrow you will write about a different subject in class.

As usual, there are two topics on the same theme:

One is more general (abstract)

The other one is more specific (concrete).

Points to remember

1. Plan
Plan the ideas you are going to use and how you will write them



2. Structure
a.

• Introduction     (Use a grabber or not). Start off generally
•  Points- compare or develop
• Conclusion       What have you learnt?

b.

• linking words

• spelling (hard words)

 Here is a good link

3. Write  

4. Check
Check agreements, spelling, grammar
