How to use this worksheet
- 1
Talk through the plan out loud before writing. A child who can say their three reasons will write them far more easily.
- 2
After the planner, copy the paragraph onto lined paper. Keeping planning and writing separate is how 3rd graders learn to organise ideas.
- 3
Use the CUPS checklist on every piece of writing, not just the sample paragraph.
