KS2 Writing Posters: Cohesive Devices

This pack contains five posters that illustrate different ways of using cohesive devices in writing.

Each poster uses an exciting fantasy image accompanied by text boxes or word balloons, which include examples of cohesive devices in writing inspired by the picture.

Blank balloon templates enable you to use the children’s own ideas. The teaching points covered in this pack are:

• repetition
• pronouns
• adverbials of time
• adverbials
• conjunctions

There are three versions of each poster:

• Completed poster - these writing posters can go straight on your classroom wall. The image is accompanied by text which illustrates the cohesive device.
• Blank poster - these posters are blank and ready for the class to add their own text in the blank speech bubbles provided. These can then be arranged around the poster.
• Giant poster - a large version of the blank poster. This can be printed off in four parts and assembled to create a larger display.
