Literacy and numeracy
With raising standards in writing often at the forefront of many discussions in education, new resources designed to help children become more confident writers are always welcome.

With raising standards in writing often at the forefront of many discussions in education, new resources designed to help children become more confident writers are always welcome.

This book has several sections in different genres with each section having a lesson plan, exemplar text and practice in writing skills.

However, this is not a book with all the planning for a complete scheme of lessons. The book recommends using its lesson plans as part of early work in the genre, with the children then going on to create a written piece. This may be better used after further lessons adding depth and clarity to children’s understanding.
