**2 Help on how to understand the questions
**3 Powepoint has easy to follow instructions and guidance on how to answer each question
**4 Sentence starters for each question to help you build up your students skills confidently
This is a resource I created to help my borderline grade 3/4 students, it is a ‘walkthrough’. I have based the Power Point on Paper 1, November 2018. I generally use this Power Point over 2 or 3 separate lessons.
I have found that borderline students often struggle with putting together a good answer, they often do not know key words to use or how to structure it. I use PEEZE and PEE which I think is standard. I also find that these students need short chunking activities to keep them interested.
I have created a separate worksheet that breaks each question down to help the students create an answer.
