This open-ended sheet is designed to support pupils in reading like a writer. It can be used with any model text to help children notice effective words, sentences or ideas and then practise adapting them for their own writing. The blank layout gives flexibility — teachers can apply it to any genre or text type, making it useful for guided reading, shared writing or independent analysis. It’s especially effective for stretching higher-ability pupils, encouraging them to take ownership of the features they want to “magpie” and use in their own work.
