With Pie Corbett as the series editor, this non-fiction writing resource supports a whole school approach to Talk for Writing.
i-learn: writing for Years 5 and 6 features nine teaching focuses including Model Texts, Reading as a Writer, Talking the Text (speaking and listening and drama activities), Writing Games (word-, sentence- and text level work), Stimulus and Shared Planning, Demonstration and Shared Writing, Practising Editing, Independent Planning and Writing and Publishing.
A 'focus' may last half a lesson or carry over several lessons. Focuses are designed to be flexible and fit in with different styles and methods of teaching writing.
