A series of ten webinars suitable for students aged around 12-14 years old, although they may suit slightly older or younger students depending on ability.
We’ll be studying a range of different pieces including speeches and persuasive writing, descriptive accounts and journal texts, letters, news reports, poetry and extracts from narrative writing. We will consider key aspects of the epic form, delve into the past and explore stories featuring larger-than-life characters, study accounts of the discovery of objects from history and consider current debates surrounding precious artefacts of cultural significance.
A wide range of supplementary resources will be provided including links to relevant articles, news reports, websites and documentaries to give students the opportunity to broaden their reading and build their knowledge of effective writing as well as extend their vocabulary and understanding of grammar, spelling and punctuation.
