However, #e still needs to check through #h work before handing it in to eliminate preventable errors. 15=#E writes with confidence, and #h stories are now more detailed and descriptive. #E tends to set #h ideas down in a colloquial fashion, but is becoming more aware of when to use formal language. 16=#E writes imaginatively, though #h work is usually concise. #E needs to introduce more descriptive phrases in order to hold the reader's attention. #N's handwriting is much neater, and more legible. #E must remember to join. 17=#E has a lively writing style and is often quite imaginative. #H use of more advanced punctuation can, at times, be erratic. 18=#E has tried hard to grasp the basics of sentence punctuation. While #e still has difficulties with commas and quotation marks, #e seems generally secure about full stops and the use of capitals. #H story writing needs greater use of descriptive words and phrases. 19=When writing, #e uses sentence punctuation accurately, and is beginning to introduce descriptive phrases. 20=When asked to present #h thoughts on paper, #e is less expressive, though the amount #e writes has increased dramatically over the year. #E is very slow when writing stories, and although #e has good ideas, #h stories are never very long. COMMENTS: English - Writing (2) 1=#E handwriting is invariably neat, though it can become untidy during creative writing. 2=#E is starting to use descriptive words in #h own writing, picking them up from the books has read, and the Literacy Hour. Though #e still needs to develop #h stories further, by adding greater detail. 3=This year in story writing, #e has developed imaginative plots, but they do occasionally lack a clear structure. 4=#N's written work is becoming more organised, showing greater attention to detail. #E produces work that is accurately punctuated, and has been encouraged to redraft #h writing in order to develop #h thoughts. 5=#E is developing a better understanding of the rules of grammar and punctuation, and has clear handwriting. 6=#N's written work is now better organised and structured more thoughtfully. 7=#E use of punctuation is good, but further work on apostrophes is required. #N's handwriting is clear, and #e has made a good start with cursive script. 8=#E is able to write independently, and use full stops and capital letters but not always accurately. Therefore, #e needs to spend more time revising and redrafting #h work. 9=#E has tried hard to grasp the basics of sentence punctuation. Though #e still has difficulties using commas and quotation marks, #e seems generally secure about full stops and capitals. 10=#E is starting to produce writing that uses complete sentences, and #h spellings are more accurate.

COMMENTS: English - Writing (3) 1=#E has tried hard to master the basics of sentence punctuation, though #e tends to write slowly, and sometimes does not finish #h work in the time available. At times, #e will lack control over #h handwriting and this means #h letter formation is poor. 2=#N's handwriting is more controlled, and #e makes a good attempt to spell simple words correctly. #E writes in basic, often short, sentences. Longer sentences with more detail should be #N's aim next year. 3=#E imaginative work has some good ideas but #e needs to develop #h vocabulary. 4=#E handwriting is gradually improving and #e generally presents #h work well. Though #e will need further practise joining letters. 5=#N's handwriting has improved though it is still over-large and uncontrolled at times. 6=#N's handwriting has improved, but #e must join more. 7=#E stories show a better use of punctuation and a greater awareness of setting and plot. 8=#E has made some progress in written English this year. #E is now writing stories of greater length, but still without consistent punctuation. 9=#E presentation has improved over the year, and #h writing is more legible. 10=#E handwriting is neater and less inconsistent. 11=At present #e general writing lacks consistency. For example, #N's stories are without substantial content, and poorly punctuated. #E therefore needs to appreciate that #h English work will only improve if #e pays close attention to what #e is being taught. 12=#E has gaps in #h knowledge, due to extended absences, and will need considerable reinforcement of basic skills if #e is to improve on #h current level of literacy. 13=#E is producing writing that uses complete sentences, and #h punctuation is more accurate. #E writes slowly and this means that, at times, #e does not get through all that #e needs to.

COMMENTS: History Group work 1=During group work, #N helps others in a very friendly way and makes a brilliant leader in group work. 2=#N must be sure to be listening when instructions are given out. The only reason I that #e may not be listening is because #e is either talking about the work, completing a previous task or helping someone else. While I do not wish to discourage #m from doing this, #e just needs to be a little more aware. 3=#N must realise that group work is not an opportunity for #m to chat. 4=#N's contribution, following group work, to our Atomic Bomb debate was fantastic.

Regardless of whether #N is taking History or not, we will be working on exam technique skills that will be useful across a variety of subjects. 6=In lessons, #N works well and consistently produces good work. 7=In lessons, #N is a quiet student. I would encourage #m to contribute some of the fantastic ideas #e has written down to class discussions.
