Non-fiction writing and spelling for NQTs, RQTs and teachers new to schools

Please note that when the booking is made, you will be required to provide the name of the delegate(s) attending and their direct email address. This is so that any important information or reminders can be communicated before the sessions take place.

The session will consider the range of non-fiction genres. The purpose, structure and features of each genre will be clearly identified. Progression within a genre will be considered. Following this, opportunities for writing in each of the genres will be considered- both within literacy and across the wider curriculum. Progression in spelling will be outlined, together with an exploration of a variety of spelling games and activities to support the teaching of spelling.

Outcomes include:

Clarity about the purpose, structure and features of NF genres

An understanding of progression in spelling

An understanding of effective teaching and pupil activities to support spelling
