Here is an example of a composition planning on the theme of an accident for Primary 3 and Primary 4 students. The planning technique has been simplified (introduction – problem – solution – ending) since the main goal is to train the students to plan as quickly as possible. We introduce more complex planning techniques at later stage once the pupils are confident with their planning skills.
Composition Question and Pictures
Question:
