Easter 2020 Home-school booklets
Talk for Writing Home-school booklets

Dear Colleagues,
 
Here are the free Talk for Writing Home-school units. The units are age-related but please pick and choose what is right for each child. They all include a model text which is also available as a streamed audio recording.

This first group is free. We’ll send out a second group in a fortnight. There will be a modest charge for these to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity to help it survive in these trying times.
 
Here are two more ways we are supporting schools:

- RadioBlogging.net – Pie is presenting a free, daily, interactive literacy show with language games, creative writing, poet of the day and author of the week. Ideal for families and schools.
- Online CPD training and support - Our trainers can provide CPD tailored to your school’s needs e.g. curriculum development, schemes of work & 'staff-meeting' CPD on all aspects of teaching English. Contact our trainers here

Wishing you all the very best – Pie, Julia and Nick
