Inviting Writing 
Teaching and Learning Writing Across the Primary Curriculum

With recent research findings by The National Literacy Trust indicating that 1 in 2 children enjoy writing, should primary school teachers be using it more? There are opportunities for teaching and learning 
writing in all subjects and all lessons.



Inviting Writing supports you to 
find these opportunities and to 
plan, assess and develop children’s writing for a range of purposes in a range of styles. Chapters cover every curriculum subject and explore the unique writing opportunities for each one. It helps you to focus on teaching the 
skills of composition and on 
taking writing forward. Examples of good practice are included throughout, alongside suggestions for teaching activities. This book also outlines the many ways in which children′s writing can be 
evidenced and encourages you to reconsider the ways in which 
children′s progress in writing can be tracked and captured.


This is a practical guide to teaching writing across the curriculum.
