Persuasive Writing: Editing & Proofreading Checklists
A set of clear, student-friendly editing and proofreading checklists designed to support the writing process. These tools help students improve structure, strengthen persuasive language and ensure accuracy, providing consistent guidance for middle primary learners during drafting and revision.
Learning goals

- We are learning to identify the audience and purpose of imaginative, informative and persuasive texts.
- We are learning to understand that paragraphs are a key organisational feature of written texts.
- We are learning to plan, draft and publish imaginative, informative and persuasive texts using text structures and language features appropriate to the audience and purpose.
