Extended Writing - how long do they have?

Post by ciaowood »

Hi, I wonder if anyone is able to answer this please? I know with the extended writing, the children will be given a task to complete which could be a diary entry, argument, letter etc - do you know if they are given, say, 10 minutes to plan and then 30 minutes to complete? Are the children expected to plan as if they would a story, or go straight into the task? Thank you!

10 mins planning and 40 minutes writing time.
