Why should children learn to write fluently? What difference will
it make to them and the opportunities available to them later on in
life? The ability to communicate clearly, accurately and
persuasively is a vital life skill. Deficiencies in motivation and
thinking skills pervade the challenge of improving children's
literacy levels. 'A Creative Approach to Teaching Writing' combines
practical activities to help children aged 7-11 develop their
writing skills, with insights into the attitude that experienced
writers apply to their craft. The activities explore different
working methods - such as how authors tap into and develop their
creativity and how they deal with 'writer's block' - and are
supported by strategies for thinking that will develop children's
literacy and the way they use language to express their opinions in
all subject areas. Steve Bowkett, author, storyteller and education
consultant, provides the key concepts and learning benefits of each
strategy, along with a series of activities, extension ideas and
useful links. Linked resources can be found on the series companion
website.
