Write This Way
Structured lessons and activities for reluctant young writers
«A useful resource which provides a wealth of experience, presenting a structured sequential framework to progress children’s writing skills with lots of fresh ideas and the know-how to implement them.»
Dr Margaret Crombie, teacher and author of Dyslexia: A Practical Guide for Teachers
Many children avoid writing for a number of reasons – perhaps they find it tedious or frustrating, or perhaps they have dyslexia or dysgraphia. This structured programme of writing activities and lessons makes writing engaging and accessible for reluctant writers, by encouraging primary teachers and learners to work together to develop children’s writing skills.

Many children avoid writing for a number of reasons – perhaps they find it tedious or frustrating, or perhaps they have dyslexia or dysgraphia. This structured programme of writing activities and lessons makes writing engaging and accessible for reluctant writers, by encouraging primary teachers and learners to work together to develop children’s writing skills.
The book covers all aspects of primary school writing, including grammar, sentence development, punctuation, paragraph writing and planning. It also shows teachers how to develop self-sufficiency skills in writing and encourage learner independence. Each section in the book builds on previous skills learned, from word level up to creative writing skills, providing pupils with a complete range of writing tools. The ready-to-use resources for each topic - including mini lessons, discovery tools and activities - offer extensions and adaptations to suit all pupil needs, including fun ideas for multisensory learning, group interventions or to keep pupils learning outside of the classroom.
For school staff working with children who find writing challenging, this practical toolkit provides a range of activities based on solid research and hands-on experience that can be incorporated straight into lessons and teaching practices.

«A useful resource which provides a wealth of experience, presenting a structured sequential framework to progress children’s writing skills with lots of fresh ideas and the know-how to implement them.»
Dr Margaret Crombie, teacher and author of Dyslexia: A Practical Guide for Teachers
«As an ex-teacher, I know how difficult the act of writing is for most children, let alone children with dyslexia. This book gives practical suggestions around teaching grammar, punctuation and creative writing. The multisensory format means that children with dyslexia, will also be able to access the information in a way that suits their learning needs. A great resource for specialists, classroom teachers and parents.»
Katrina Cochrane, founder of Positive Dyslexia Ltd , @katrinadyslexia
«Write This Way! is such a useful, practical and effective book for teachers and parents who are forever struggling to teach writing. Reid, Clark and McIntosh have taken such a difficult topic to teach and turned it into lesson plans that almost constitute an intervention programme in an easy-to-read and easy-to-follow book. Simply brilliant! I highly recommend it for parents and teachers.»
Dr Gad Elbeheri, Director of the Lighthouse Centre, Egypt
«An excellent book written by experts for adults working with children who find the process of writing challenging. So many learners are overwhelmed, fearful of the process or simply do not know where to begin. This accessible text looks at the range of skills necessary to develop those skills in a structured, comprehensive and engaging way.»
