PETAL Support & Model Examples

(0)
<p>This structure can be used to support students with writing points, supporting them with evidence (how to embed), explaining/analysing and developing detail in context and writing a linking, yet concluding sentence at the end of the paragraph. I have also included a video of the full ppt at the start of the lesson with me speaking about how it all connects etc. Feel free to use both or either. It would probably be useful to put the video on the school’s platform so students can access it for hwk or revision.</p> <p>Keep in mind that once students understand the basic structure and how to do the above then they can be more creative with their answers and embed additional evidence throughout etc.</p>
