This new book by Dr Alison Davis, provides teachers and students with the knowledge and skills to become active and engaged in the process of learning to write- and learning from writing. This resource offers explicit support for effective classroom instruction. It explores key ideas about writing and presents numerous examples of how teachers can plan for and develop instruction. The accompanying CD contains graphic organisers that can be used for independent paired and small group work during instruction, and as part of planed practice and maintenance of previous learning throughout the year.
