The PM Writing program has been specifically developed for use in the first eight years of school. PM Writing Kindergarten Exemplars for Teaching Writing provides exemplars of, and an initial introduction to, the four text types commonly taught in the early years of school: Recount, Description, Information Report and Narrative.

The exemplars are presented over three double-page spreads:

Teacher Focus notes appear on each spread, featuring key teaching points and teacher talk related to the language features and text structure of the text type.

The interactive whiteboard CD found inside the front cover can be used on any interactive whiteboard, allowing teachers and students to interact with the pictures and text on each of the spreads in the book:

• Learning about Words screen – reveal pictures in sequence, move labels next to the appropriate items in the pictures and create new labels

• Learning about Sentences screen – reveal sentences in sequence, edit the text

• Learning More about Words and Sentences screen – edit text and use blue font to model how to add information to build a simple text.

PM Writing Kindergarten components:

• Kindergarten Exemplars for Teaching Writing with IWB CD

• 16 Levelled Exemplar Texts (Levels 1/2 and 2/3)

• Kindergarten Teachers’ Resource Book

• the first spread, Learning about Words, presents text content in visual form with corresponding labels and high frequency verbs

• the second spread, Learning about Sentences, uses the words from the previous spread in simple sentence structures

• the third spread, Learning More about Words and Sentences, builds upon the text from the previous spread to create a basic exemplar text.

There are no explicit text types for

PM Writing Levels 1/2 texts. This is because the texts introduce simple sentence constructions which form only part of a text type, and not a complete text type.

Levels 2/3 include the basic features of two

text types: recount, and description.
