Resources:
The DEAL poster
Resource from Bedfordshire LA (Thank you!)
How It Works:
To get students to develop their writing to meet the higher band criteria, teach them DEAL.
Describe > Explain > Analyse > Link
Use the Sequence for Teaching Writing to model and scaffold each step.
Variations:
A similar structure to PEE (Point > Evidence > Explore) which can be used to structure analytical paragraphs
More able students can PEAL (Point > Evidence > Analyse > Link)
