Cracking
Creative Writing in KS1 contains 75+ creative
writing activities linked to the grammar requirements of the National
Curriculum, providing pupils with opportunities to practise, reinforce and
consolidate their grammar and punctuation skills.

The activities encourage children in Years 1 and 2 to engage
with the prescribed elements of English, to use, manipulate and play with them
- and in the process - discover how they can use them effectively their own
writing. Through playing and experimenting with the language, pupils will start
to see themselves as confident and increasingly successful
writers.

All the activities are designed to fit easily into one
lesson making it easy to integrate them into your planning and children are
usually excited and surprised by what they can achieve in a very short
time.

Each
activity includes a stimulus poem or passage, to share with pupils and inspire
them.

Differentiation suggestions are provided, making the
activities easily adaptable for children of different abilities.
