  This title includes a series of books of ready-made photocopiable activities plus teacher guidance that help teachers to do shared and guided writing with whole class and groups. Each book covers one specific writing type and aims to improve teacher confidence and knowledge about shared and guided writing, whilst providing them with the teaching resources they need to improve practice. The activities Funny Stories (5-7 yrs) enable children to: recognise different aspects of humour in stories, including anticipation and surprise, choice of vocabulary, characterisations, actions and events; explore the development of funny characters and events; engage in word play to create humour; and, create their own funny stories that can be read and enjoyed by others.
