Challenging them to generate creative ideas builds the confidence and discipline pupils need to triumph in all matters of life. Children who become competent writers at an early age have been proven to make good progress in all other academic areas.

Using the activities in this book will ensure that you are building the foundations to enable your pupils achieve their best, not just in the Early Year Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1, but throughout their time at school.
