Write a Summer Postcard to Next Year's Class - Extension Task

Year 2 · English · Extension Task · $4.99 AUD

A Year 2 English writing extension task in which students write an end-of-year summer postcard to next year's class. Across four stages, students think about a reader who was not there, decide what would help them most, cut unnecessary words from sample sentences, draft and trim a postcard to about forty words, then draw the picture side with a short caption. Teacher notes are included.

Part of the "Writing for the End of the Year" sub-unit. Aligned to AC9E2LY03, AC9E2LY06, AC9E2LE05 (Australian Curriculum v9).

Students will:
• Identify the reader and what they need to know
• Cut words that add nothing to a message
• Write a short postcard for a real audience
• Use noun groups to write clear sentences

A ready-to-teach extension task, supplied as PDF, editable Word (DOCX) and PowerPoint (PPTX).
