Two example diary entries from the point of view of Christophe from the children’s novel Christophe’s Story by Nicki Cornwell.

These exemplar diary entries are perfect to use as WAGOLLs after reading Chapter 1 of the text.

The first model diary entry comes with a feature find worksheet for children to fill in, plus answer sheet. This can be easily edited to vary the challenge level and provide differentiation.

After identifying features, pupils can write their own diary entries based on the example texts. These could be from the point of view Christophe or from the point of view of other characters (for example, Jeremy, Greg, Miss Finch or Christophe’s father). Alternatively, pupils could write from Christophe’s point of view recounting events from the previous or following day.

The language, grammar and punctuation features to be identified in the text include:
• Similes
• Rule of three
• Onomatopoeia
• Questions
• Fronted adverbials followed by commas
• Co-ordinating conjunctions
• Expanded noun phrases
• Exclamation marks
• Apostrophes for contraction
• Commas in a list
• Dashes
• Colons
• Semi-colons

All resources come as easily editable Word documents and as PDFs.
