🎯 Curriculum Focus:
AC9E3LY06 – Plan, create, edit and publish imaginative, informative and persuasive written and multimodal texts, using visual features, appropriate form and layout, with ideas grouped in simple paragraphs, mostly correct tense, topic-specific vocabulary and correct spelling of most high-frequency and phonetically regular words.
Also aligns closely with the Common Core State Standards for Grade 3 Writing (W.3.2). It supports students as they plan, write, and revise informative texts by focusing on key skills such as introducing a topic, grouping related information, using facts and definitions, and writing a clear conclusion. While originally developed for the Australian Curriculum, this resource translates seamlessly to U.S. classrooms and can also be adapted for high-achieving Grade 2 students. It’s a great tool for making writing expectations visible, building student confidence, and supporting effective writing instruction.
✨ Why you will love it:
✔ Aligned to Australian Curriculum v9
✔ Saves hours of prep time
✔ Promotes visible learning and student agency
✔ Perfect for writing walls, learning displays, and assessment moderation
