Multi sensory Christmas writing - Hot Chocolate
Let children enjoy a (not too) hot chocolate and record their experience on the palette of words planning sheet, using their senses of smell, sight, taste and touch. Then help the children create a paragraph of writing using their plan!
This pack includes:
Palette of words to record multi sensory phrases and help plan and formulate ideas.
Four writing frames to publish hot chocolate writing.
This planning grid allows learners to prepare, annotate, edit and develop ideas before writing a longer piece.
Worried about differentiation? Try:
using the grids as a word sorting game,
mixed ability groups,
small groups with alternate lead writers,
reviewing/editing and “magpie-ing”/idea sharing words from each other – and doing so in a different colour!
