This resource contains a model text of a recipe. Explore this with your children as a good example of what you might expect them to write. Give children time to read the model text and analyse the sentence structures and vocabulary used. What elements might they want to use in their own writing?

Pupils can then use the writing frame to create their own recipe. They may want to write out a first draft in their books and use this worksheet for a final copy to be proudly presented on the wall. Encourage children to use all the ideas, vocabulary and editing techniques they have learnt to produce a high-quality piece of writing.

The teaching PowerPoint for this writing unit also provides a blank writing frame for you to model writing techniques and what a writer’s thought process might be. It could also be where you do a shared write to guide and inspire writers.
