1
2
Reading – whole
texts by leading
children’s authors
Through a ‘three layers of
text’ approach children
develop deep comprehension,
exploring a text from its
simplest level of meaning to
its most complex.
Anthology 3
The children read Anthologies of
complete texts by leading children’s authors
including Michael Morpurgo, Jamila Gavin, Jeremy Strong,
Jon Blake, Gervaise Phinn, Oscar Wilde and many others.
Talk, link, predict
3
Every day, children develop
and share ideas through
partner work and class
discussion. They debate,
summarise, explain
and predict, and make
meaningful links with their
own experiences.
Word power!
Children read powerful
words to develop a
knowledge of exciting
vocabulary and synonyms,
which they then use in
their own writing.
Teacher Handbooks
The detailed Teacher
Handbooks provide
day-by-day lesson plans
and each unit has an
integrated approach to
fiction and non-fiction.
Software
Easy to deliver lively
interactive teaching.
Anthology 2B
5
Deep thinking and
debate – ‘The Big
Question’
Children discuss a philosophical
question, linking texts to the real
world. There is no right answer,
enabling them to be confident
when expressing their opinions
and developing their debating skills.
4
Writing – ‘three
layers of text’
approach
The teacher ‘thinks out loud’
whilst modelling writing
(planning, rehearsing aloud,
drafting, editing). Children
mirror this so they write
ambitiously, accurately and
confidently themselves.
“I really like the way the
reading and writing is built
up step-by-step and the clear
guidance for teachers in terms
of modelling is great.”
