Writing

When children leave Eastwick, we hope that they will be enthused, confident writers who: 

• can discuss and evaluate how authors use language, including figurative language, considering the impact on the reader
• are able to write for a range of audiences and purposes using accurate grammatical features and a wide range of ambitious and effective vocabulary which draws on what they have read as models. 
• have a passion for writing, encouraging them to wish to write in their own time  
• understand the purpose of drafting, editing and publishing a piece of writing

Text Overview

This document showcases the wide range of high-quality texts that each year group studies throughout the year to inspire our writing. We aim to explore, discuss and unpick the different genre texts and then recreate these using inspiration from various authors and styles of writing.

Talk for Writing

This document provides further information about the Talk for Writing process and how each teaching stage is used to inspire and support the children's development for writing. While the National Curriculum objectives for English underpin all of our teaching and learning, Talk for Writing is our engaging vehicle which takes our children on an inspiring journey, to learn and retain new curriculum content in a meaning and purposeful way.
