• Let’s talk: Talk about the types of writing you have in the classroom. There may be signs that give information; instructions that tell pupils what to do; stories or poems for people to read for pleasure, etc. Help pupils to work out the purpose of each one. • Reading: Ask pupils how they know text 1 is an invitation. Ask them to identify text features. • Introduce the idea of audience – the people who are going to read the writing. Ask who the audience is for the invitation (children, friends of Dean) and who the audience is for the shopping list (the person who is going to do the shopping).
