Synopsis

This practical and comprehensive resource addresses the most common questions that teachers ask about teaching writing to young children. It offers a step-by-step approach to engaging young writers and developing confident readers and writers. Based on the work of real pupils aged 5 to 8, it suggests ways to interpret children's work, identify what they know and build naturally on the writing strengths displayed. A series of writing lesson plans form the core of the book. Using the case studies provided, the authors show how to celebrate a pupil's work, develop it and set goals for the next piece of writing.This is followed by a mini-lesson that builds on the work done and suggests group and whole-class activities to use with others at a similar stage. This book strives to help teachers achieve the delicate balance through which a child learns from direct instruction as well as from the learning environment. Full of samples of class work, this comprehensive book also includes tips for keeping parents informed and involved, and a list of recommended children's books.
