Mnemonics are memory strategies to help remember key information. Here are two based on acronyms:
PQD = Point, quote, development - useful for learners who are moving towards an academic goal.
WEE= What is the paragraph about, explain and example.
Give learners the mnemonic and then provide them with paragraphs that don't do what they should. Ask learners to identify what is missing from each paragraph and then suggest how it could be made better.
For less able learners a sorting activity where they have to match up the three parts of one paragraph.
