Organising Writing into Paragraphs
将写作组织成段落
Description
Organise writing into paragraphs, grouping related material around a theme, and use simple organisational devices such as headings and sub-headings in non-narrative writing
Mastery Evidence
- Divide a piece of writing into paragraphs, each focused on one main idea or aspect of the topic
- Use headings and sub-headings to organise a non-fiction text (e.g., a report about animals with sections 'Habitat', 'Diet', 'Appearance')
- Identify where a new paragraph should begin in a given text and explain why (e.g., 'A new paragraph starts here because the topic changes from appearance to diet')
Assessment Prompt
When your child writes a longer piece — like a report or a story — do they organise it into paragraphs, with related ideas grouped together and, where appropriate, headings to help the reader navigate?
