Writing History 7-11 supports students and primary teachers helping
them to explore ways in which activities involving the talk that
underpins historical enquiry can be developed into reading and
exciting, extended, reflective writing. The step that teachers and
pupils take from 'talk for learning' to 'talk for writing' is a
vital one. In this book the authors argue that all aspects of
historical enquiry leading to writing involve discussion and
dialogue which permeate every aspect of 'doing history'. From this
perspective they set out a theoretical framework for understanding
the role of talk and reading in developing pupils' critical
thinking and confident reflective writing, then demonstrate through
a series of case studies, in which teachers, university lecturers
and pupils work together, how the theory is put into practice in
the classroom. Themes include: How to support children in writing
in a variety of interesting genres How to make links between the
National Curriculum (2013) for History and for English How to plan
for breadth and depth studies in the new National Curriculum How
activities in History 5 - 11 can be developed into exciting
extended writing The second half of the book draws upon case
studies from a number of real primary classrooms with children of
different ages. Each case study shows how teaching was planned to
develop children's confidence and enjoyment in discussion and to
scaffold reasoned, written explanation and argument. Topics
presented are all relevant to the new curriculum framework and
include talking and reading about: Time, change and significance
over 6000 years - writing a television script Celtic Britain and
the Roman Army - writing a travel brochure about Celtic Britain The
destruction of Roman towns - writing a Saxon poem An archaeological
investigation of a body in a Danish peat bog - writing a newspaper
report Did any countries benefit from WW11? - writing an argued
viewpoint The expansion westwards of European settlers - writing a
flap book exploring different perspectives. This indispensable book
provides not only sources for pupils to use in their writing, but
also models and exemplars of different styles and voices to draw
upon.
