We are currently planning our own non-fiction books all about Nelson Mandela. Together we decided on all the elements needed in our Writer's Toolkit. Some elements we all decide to include, but others (like a map or timeline) are optional. Then we planned they layout of our books using a miniature prototype booklet. After setting out the Contents and Index pages and writing a topic sentence to start each chapter we then got started writing the first draft. We used all the research we have been doing in our History lessons. |
