Term 2 2024 - Goal

 Term 2 Goal: Improve Student Writing Across the Curriculum

This term, my focus is on improving my students' writing across all subjects. Writing is such an important skill for Year 6 students, and I want them to feel confident expressing their ideas clearly and effectively, no matter the subject.

To achieve this, I plan to integrate more structured writing activities into different areas of the curriculum. For example, students will write recounts in science, persuasive pieces in social studies, and reflections during inquiry learning. I’ll be using shared and guided writing to model the writing process and show students how to plan, draft, and edit their work step-by-step.

Feedback is another big focus this term. I’ll provide targeted feedback to help students improve specific areas of their writing, while also introducing peer feedback so they can support and learn from each other. My hope is that by the end of the term, they’ll see writing as not just a task, but a way to share their voice and ideas confidently across all areas of their learning.
