| Developing Literacy: Poetry is a series of three photocopiable activity books for primary school teachers. Each book provides a range of poetry activities, and supports the teaching of reading and writing skills at text, sentence and word levels. The books contain more than enough ideas for the years for which they are intended, and provide teachers with a range of activities to select from.
The activities are designed to be carried out in the time allocated to independent work and incorporate strategies that encourage independent learning - for example, ways in which children can evaluate their own work or that of a partner. Most children will be able to carry out the activities on their own, but it is assumed that an adult will read the instructions to or with the younger children. |
