IntroductionThis book of ‘Independent WritingActivities’ covers the genres for the5 to 6 year old age group. It hasbeen written to the UK NationalStrategy Primary Framework forLiteracy.

It contains at least two independentwriting activities for each genre typeand is an ideal vehicle for assessingpupil progress in writing when usedwith the different Levels found in theWriting Assessment Guidelines,which accompany the PrimaryFramework for Literacy. (Theappropriate levels for this age grouphave been reproduced under licenceat the beginning of this book.)

The author has also used thisapproach successfully with childrento embed the features of each genre.This was achieved by re-visiting apreviously studied genre later in theterm, so that the children practised itonce again. This ensured that thefeatures of that particular type ofwriting remained firmly embedded inthe children’s memory. Thus whenthe children were tested or came towrite in that particular genre at a laterdate it was not just a distant memory.

There are six similar books in thisseries covering the work of pupilsfrom Year 1 through to Year 6 (ages5 to 11). PDF or Download versionsare also available of these books foruse on Interactive Whiteboards.

Topical Resources publishes a range ofEducational Materials for use in PrimarySchools and Pre-School Nurseries andPlaygroups.
