A resource designed to help students identify the language and structural features of different texts and begin writing their own. Students are given a number of example text types to analyse on the theme of saving some battery hens. They are then given prompts to write the beginning of a newspaper report, a speech and a magazine advertisement. This could also be a refresher for KS4 writing.

Have you used this resource?

Hi, thank you for your comment and interest in this resource. All of our resources are written by teachers. We normally request answers from our writers if the resource can't be published without them. In this case, we appreciate that the answers would have been helpful in the table task, but that the editorial judgement would have determined the resource worth publishing regardless. I'll make a note of it as something to follow up when it's appropriate to do so. Kind regards.
