Part B: My growth profile – ‘When I was a kindergarten child’
1. | Before pupils work on Part 2 of the growth profile (LT 5.3), highlight the main idea in this part – pupils could take care of themselves. Brainstorm with pupils more ideas on what they could do when they were a kindergarten child.

2. | To help pupils organise their writing, guide them to make use of the categories of the tree diagram of ‘Self Care’ to develop topic sentences for the different paragraphs (e.g. I could get dressed). Show pupils how they can elaborate the main idea in each paragraph by providing details using the verb phrases in that category (e.g. I could get dressed. I could put on my jacket. I could also do up my zips and buttons).

3. | Guide pupils to read their drafts and provide feedback on the appropriate use of vocabulary and relevance of ideas in each paragraph with respect to the topic sentence.
