This Year 6 Using Formal and Informal Styles Modelling PPT provides a range of comprehensive questions designed to support children in their understanding of how to use formal and informal styles in their writing. With varied fluency, reasoning and application questions, this resource can be used as a whole class teaching resource to assess what children already know.

This PowerPoint can be used alongside our other Using Formal and Informal Styles worksheets and comes with answer pages to support teachers in the classroom.
