Compiled over years of practice in the English classroom this material covers all aspects of the Writing element of secondary school English – Information, Discursive, Thoughts and Feelings Essays and the Short Story. It combines more formal work, related to the recognised criteria, as well as providing exemplars and worksheets, tried and tested in the classroom, to practise and enhance the skills required in this important curricular area.
The resource includes definitions and requirements with suggestions and relevant tasks, further sharpening awareness of the discrete natures of each Writing genre, as well as fostering the appropriate skills and confidence to tackle these with success. Sheets may be used individually, or in combination, to teach skills, or in an assessment and/or remedial capacity.
The material has proved useful in addressing the needs and aspirations of secondary pupils, and adults, of all ages and ability levels.
There are sections on issues of redrafting, (vital for underpinning achievement in Writing), as well as a final brief section of proven tips for boosting the chances of success in a typical written examination situation. It is also worth noting that these materials will also prove very useful in equipping pupils and adults with the skills required for analysing the written work of others, when course work has called for this.
