Writing Day 3 – Planning your Information Poster

Planning out a piece of work is a good idea as it gives you a chance to think about what your final piece might look like, and make

changes on the way – you might move parts or change the sub-title or add in something new.. A plan supports you to write a

great piece of writing by making sure you have thought about all that you want to include. A plan doesn't have to be pretty or have full sentences, it is just an idea of what you will write about and where! Keep your plan safe until tomorrow when we will create

your finished piece of work!
