Will they encounter any dangers along the way? What qualities will they have to show in order to survive? Where is the mother leading her cubs do you think? If the polar bears could speak, what would they be saying to each other? If polar bears ruled the world, what changes would we see? Is it harder to survive in a really cold place or a really hot place? Do polar bears have conversations with each other? Perfect picture! Imagine you could design the perfect home for a polar bear. Draw or write down what you have imagined. Story starter! There was only one thing on her mind. With one of her cubs clinging on to the soft, comfortable fur on her back and the other two not far behind, she set off across the snow. This was not the first time she had made this journey.

Stödstrukturer och bildstöd - mallar att sätta upp i klassrummet För elever som har svårt för att skriva och uttrycka sig begripligt på engelska använder jag mig ofta av stödstrukturer och bildstöd. Det går inte att bara säga till eleverna att de ska skriva utan jag måste undervisa dem om hur texten ska se ut och hur de skriver den på engelska. Jag utgår från genrepedagogik och cirkelmodellen när det gäller att träna eleverna i tal och i skrift. Jag tycker att det bästa är om du kan samarbeta med svenskläraren så att du på engelsklektionerna skriver samma texttyp som de arbetar med i svenskan. Mina elever som har svårt för att skriva börjar väldigt enkelt. När eleverna har kommit längre i sin skrivutveckling använder jag en mer utvecklad mall som de också tar del av hemma och iförväg. Nedan har jag bifogat några stödstrukturer som du kan använda när eleverna ska skriva olika texter. Frågorna i bilden ovan är ursprungligen från Annikas blogg och finns där på svenska. / Sara
