GCSE English Language - Scaffolded Descriptive Writing Bundle

4 Resources
This bundle incorporates all the scaffolded writing resources I have uploaded to TES. Together they create a continuous resource from the introduction of “bite size” openers to whole text creation. The aim, ultimately is to “self-scaffold” and that is what the last resource does. Once at that point students should be able to scaffold quickly with no assistance. Contents: 20 English scaffold openers (short, bite-size, lots of 'em!) Whole text excercise using scaffolding 2 whole text scaffolded exercises using the same picture to create different tone 3 self-scaffolded exercises where students create their own scaffold. This is enough to keep your students busy for quite a while. It is also an alternative approach to descriptive writing which may enliven teaching and learning. The aim, ultimately, is to significantly increase the marks awarded for Paper 1 Question 5 (descriptive writing) of GCSE English Language (AQA but these are editable and easily adaptable for any board). These exercises cover the following Assessment Objectives: AO5: Communicate clearly, effectively and imaginatively, selecting and adapting tone, style and register for different forms, purposes and audiences. Organise information and ideas, using structural and grammatical features to support coherence and cohesion of texts AO6: Candidates must use a range of vocabulary and sentence structures for clarity, purpose and effect, with accurate spelling and punctuation.
