Teaching Ideas

Overview

With Find Out & Write About, children can research and write about a subject. You can use Find Out & Write About as non-fiction text in literacy work, or for topic work. It links reading and writing and focuses on reading comprehension and writing compositions. It offers a high level of support.

It is suitable for individual and group work, and offers differentiation as each book has two or three different levels, or 'books', of information. These cover the same topics with increasing levels of difficulty - so children with different abilities can work on the same topic at a suitable level.
