Poetry - From Reading to Writing - A Classroom Guide for Ages 7-11

Zusatztext 'I really liked the book. It manages to make writing sound simple and does so without ever being trite. I used several of the starter ideas with a group of very unconfident students who all got writing quickly and were very pleased with their efforts. It enabled them to see how they could work with children. My student felt it had helped her understand a subject that she knew virtually nothing about before. I'll certainly be asking for it to be put on reading lists.' - Liz Smart! Principal Lecturer! University of Chichester!
