•  Writing: CR Allow pupils to use Creole or Standard English to talk about sports day. But ask them to write their sentences in Standard English. •  Tell pupils that only the first sentence needs to begin with ‘On sports day’. This tells the reader what the writing is going to be about. DA Encourage some pupils to write more than one paragraph. • Portfolio: With pupils’ help, continue to keep examples of their writing to record progress and achievement.
