What is Igniting Writing?
Igniting Writing is a multi media writing resource consisting of:
Two whiteboard CD-ROMs, containing multimedia sequences to engage and inspire pupils.
Pupils' Handbooks - to help your pupils develop their ideas and gain the confidence to become independent writers.
Igniting Writing covers a wide range of the NLS objectives for fiction, non-fiction and poetry genres, including multi-modal and non-linear text types in line with the renewed Literacy Framework, and provides:
Ready-to-use multi media presentations that can also be customised.
A topic-based approach, covering popular themes such as the water cycle and the Titanic, making it easy to improve writing skills across the curriculum.
Differentiated texts and activities, allowing you to use this resource at two levels – upper and lower KS2/P4-7.
Step-by-step support for pupils’ own writing, with modelled texts, analysis of key features and Sue Palmer’s interactive writing skeletons.
A multi-sensory approach to suit all learning styles.
Built-in toolkits that support the success criteria in Assessment for Learning.
