One of the most popular texts I have used with my pupils: what a good one looks like (WAGOLL). Text exemplar with worksheets, a presentation and lesson ideas. This original and exciting text encourages pupils to talk, innovate and then write. The 4 resources can be used for Big Writing. The exemplar text is ideal for when pupils are imitating, innovating or inventing.
