Book Overview: Raise standards in story writing through ICT

Media Reviews

The approach is clear and straightforward with instructions in user-friendly speech. Its great strength is that it combines some easy-to-use, ready-prepared materials with the capacity to edit and build up one's own resources. Mavis Humphreys, Literacy Consultant, Staffordshire Links to the NLS are clear and the text types in the Pupil Book are fully appropriate. The clarity of the writing process is a real strength. Jackie Woodward, Leading Literacy Teacher and Literacy Consultant, Cambridgeshire This is an ideal way of making sure that ICT is really embedded in literacy teaching. As a SENCO I especially liked the frequent opportunities for differentiation that really addressed the needs of the less able pupil. I would definitely want to use this as a resource with my class... It would raise teacher confidence levels and raise the standards of children's independent story writing. Kathleen Horwood, Deputy Head and Class Teacher, Suffolk
