This single page literacy mat is designed to help students produce either a persuasive piece of writing or a speech. As you can see from the preview, students are given a series of sentence starters to help them scaffold their answers. This is a tried and tested resource which works brilliantly with students of all abilities.
As a history teacher, I often use this mat with my students to write formal letter of complaint to General Haig about conditions in the trenches or to write a persuasive letter to a Norman Lord recommending why he should replace his Motte and Bailey Castle with a Square Keep.
This resource has been so successful that it has been adopted by our English Faculty and spread around both the LEA and our Trust. This is a brilliant resource which works with all ages and abilities. Most people print off a set either in A4 and laminate them. It also makes an excellent classroom display when printed off on A3.
If you like this resource then why not check out my other resources on this topic in my TES shop. You can also follow ‘The History Academy’ on Twitter, Google Plus, YouTube and Facebook for the latest updates or even to get in touch and chat about how you have used this resource or to ask questions. We aim to produce cheap and affordable resources for either the price of a good cup of coffee so that you can spend more time doing the things that you want.
Anyway, have fun with this outstanding resource and stay in touch via social media.
Kind Regards
