Reflective Writing - The Best/Worst Day of My Life

Reflective Writing - The Best/Worst Day of My Life

(0)
Reflective Writing - The Best/Worst Day of My Life As pupils progress in their writing, it is important to teach them how to progress their basic recount writing into reflective writing. Rather than just retell events pupils will describe their thoughts/emotions and reflect on how these events impacted them positively or negatively. Pupils really enjoyed this writing piece and I emphasised that it didn’t have to be a hugely emotional experience which could upset them. The pupils had recently visited a residential stay so I felt that this was a good one to model for them as many of them had different experiences of it. This resource takes you through what it means to be reflective. It also provides examples for the pupils which allows them to discuss if the paragraph recounts or reflects. There is also a modelled writing piece which breaks the writing into sections for the pupils.
