A practical support for shared and guided writing sessions

Writing Guides build your content knowledge of writing genres and equip you to be an effective and successful 'writing guide'. There are three levels, with five different genres treated at each level.

Each Writing Guide focuses on one type of writing, with four clear sections to support you all the way:

  • Sharing models
  • Child-friendly photocopiables
  • Supportive structures
  • Assessment.

Genres treated include Recounts, Reports, Instructions, News Stories, Persuasive Writing, Fairy Stories, Fantasy Stories, Funny Stories, Adventure Stories, Scary Stories, Sci-fi Stories and Realistic Stories.
