Cayman Islands Writing Exemplar

AF3: 

Organisation

 – Organise and present whole texts effectively, sequencing and structuring

information, ideas, and events

• 

The author attempts to include an opening that answers the “who,” “what,” “where,” “when,” and “why” questions; 

however, he/she does not use a hooking strategy to capture the reader’s attention. The author also combines 

his/her opening with details of the first events (e.g., playing Lego) which should be the beginning of a second 

paragraph.  

• 

The details of the text are ordered logically. However, the transitions from one detail to the next are often choppy. 

•  The author includes a closing paragraph that reflects on the day and begins to allude to the lesson learned (e.g., 

the author was sad to go home, but realises the positive aspect of getting to spend time with friends/family).
