Bite into Writing Book 1

Bite into Writing is a comprehensive resource for year 6 teachers, designed to help teach and assess writing with confidence. Book 1 is based on the quality text 'When We Were Warriors' by Emma Carroll and includes two spotlight texts (a narrative incident and a formal incident report), teaching and learning activities, curriculum links and a writing showcase record. It also includes an overall commentary and detailed annotations for three sets of exemplification material. Book 1 can be used on its own or in conjunction with books 2 and 3 at any time during the academic year.

Bite into Writing offers a flexible, non-prescriptive approach to reading into writing that can fit around your curriculum plans. The diverse teaching and learning activities encourage pupils to develop their reading comprehension skills and inspire writing for a range of purposes and audiences. Written by experienced moderators, Bite into Writing has been developed alongside classroom teachers and includes annotated examples from pupils who have used the activities.
