3 Children s writing portfolios should include: Minimum of three quality INDPNDNT pieces of writing. ie Cold tasks or self-edited (but not teacherdirected) writing per term. typed label explaining the level of input/ support. Some cross curricular pieces, eg where the Science topic has been taught alongside and during Literacy. Progress from previous piece and from similar piece from previous year- focus on curriculum objectives rather than genres and plan with progression in mind. Positive comment and a next step where appropriate. 6 will keep their six best pieces, including a short story, poem, one cross curricular piece and at least two nonfiction. (mostly produced during spring and summer term) Tasks should be chosen and developed to ensure progression and, therefore, some units may be better suited to PP tasks than others, for example: Tasks that enable progression may include descriptive pieces, narratives, character studies, diaries, NC reports, letters, all poetry where mastery of language can be shown. Tasks more suited to reading/ performing/ doing might include instructions, play scripts, stories from other cultures, creation stories, classic poetry. DH 2016
