Description
Teaching for Mastery in Writing provides a practical approach to developing mastery in writing, helping all primary children to develop their skills and inspire a love of writing. This innovative book integrates mastery into existing teaching sequences, aiming to improve the writing ability of all children, not just the more able. Writing is a challenging discipline for children in today's primary schools, with many skills to learn and demands on schools from various sources. The book promotes a classroom culture characterised by focused talk and reasoning, providing ideas for challenging children through the development of key learning dispositions and critical thinking skills. By following this approach, teachers can help children become effective communicators through writing, making it easier for them to succeed in their academic journey.
