Buy this book! Pie Corbett has written another book aimed at teaching fiction writing to pupils in KS1. I bought the KS1 book first. In both books, the text is well organised and practical to use. Pie Corbett writes about teaching the key aspects of story writing in a simple but inspiring way. Now, I plan and teach story writing with confidence, enthusiasm and enjoyment. It works and the pupils get it!

This is a very useful primary resource for teaching literacy. There are some excellent workshop ideas.
I have already tried some of the things in here with my class and had some fabulous results.

After 35 years of teaching am still learning myself and I found the ideas and suggestions in this book really invigorated my teaching of Writing. I think it should be compulsory reading for all Year 5 and Year 6 teachers who need a bit of a boost in their delivery of their Writing lessons.
