This is a series of books of ready-made photocopiable activities plus teacher guidance that help teachers to do shared and guided writing within a particular text type. Each book covers one specific writing type and aims to improve teacher confidence and knowledge and provide them with the teaching resources they need. Each book has 4 sections: Using Good Examples - two extracts to explore in shared writing activities to enable children (and teachers) to develop knowledge and understanding of the text type; Developing Writing - activities for exploring, practising and planning elements of the text type; Writing - projects to help children to put their writing ideas and planning together into written work; and, Review - ideas and photocopiables to get children to redraft, assess and improve their own writing. The activities in "Explanations (9-11 yrs)" enable children to: identify the characteristic features of explanation texts; make texts clear and interesting by sequencing the text; use causal and temporal connectives; and, use diagrams and technical terminology.
