• There are several writing frames/prompts in this pack to support and challenge students.
• Prompts on pages 1 and 2 are intended as sentence openings only, and students shouldn’t complete their
responses on these pages. The prompts on page 3, however, can be completed on the document.
• Prompts should be amended/edited as best supports students. It’s best to keep the prompts as generic as
possible so they can be kept and used for future responses.
