| Synopsis: |
Shared writing is a powerful teaching strategy. It allows teachers to model and discuss the choices writers make, focus on particular aspects of the writing process (planning, drafting, revising) and introduce children to appropriate concepts and technical language. Using a shared writing strategy can make a significant difference to writing standards in the classroom. But preparing resources for these sessions can be time-comsuming and demanding! Here's One I Wrote Earlier offers teachers an extensive bank of writing examples that teachers can photocopy and use in their shared writing sessions. Each photocopiable resource includes: * Includes examples from a range of genres, including fiction, non-fiction and poetry; * Provides detailed examples of each stage of the writing process, from initial draft to plan to polished version; * Uses annotated 'answer' sheets to support your teaching and build your confidence; * Links to the National Literacy Stategy teaching objectives. |
