Description
Descriptosaurus Story Writing Language in Action is a valuable resource for younger pupils, providing essential building blocks to create narrative texts and contextualised vocabulary, phrases, and sentence types. This book offers vocabulary for setting, character, 'show not tell', and sensory descriptions, demonstrating how to use these in different contexts using set sentence structures. Four model narratives written in different styles and levels of difficulty are presented, accompanied by modelled sentences with exercises to help pupils expand their vocabulary. This guide is ideal for primary English teachers, literacy coordinators, and parents seeking to improve children's knowledge and understanding of language, grammar, and punctuation. It can also be used in preparation for Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar (SPAG) alongside a creative writing task.
