Planning to Teach Writing

Written by an experienced teacher and Literacy consultant, Planning to Teach Writing provides an easy-to-use, tried-and-tested framework that will reduce teachers‘ planning time whilst raising standards in writing. Exploring effective assessment practice, it puts the needs and interests of pupils at the forefront of planning and models how to plan units of work which lead to high quality writing outcomes. Using the Circles Planning Approach and exploring fantastic picture books, short stories, novels and films as hooks, it aims to ensure planning for teaching and learning that will maximise engagement, enjoyment and achievement.
