INSET OVERVIEW

During this one day training course, Jane Considine will guide teachers through the process of planning and teaching to non-fiction genres. Building upon the foundations shared during The Write Stuff training, Jane will explicitly demonstrate her highly effective, tried and tested methods to enhance pupil’s non-fiction writing outcomes.
This training will further explore the concepts and ideas relating to non-fiction that are featured in Jane Considine’s best-selling book, The Write Stuff. This includes detailed explanations of the ‘reveal all’ approach for teaching non-fiction writing and guidance on the important step of ‘finding the shape’ before attempting to craft a range of sentence structures. Jane’s systems for teaching non-fiction writing have given teachers the confidence to plan and deliver effective non-fiction units, literally transforming non-fiction writing outcomes for pupils across the primary phase.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES

• Understand the features of non-fiction text types and how to teach them by combining teacher modelling, supported practice and opportunities for independence.
• Strengthen subject knowledge of the vocabulary, sentence structures and grammatical techniques pupils will need to create high quality non-fiction outcomes.
• Develop a shared understanding of the ‘The Three Zones of Writing’ and how they relate to non-fiction.
• Explore in detail how to build logical non- fiction units of work that build writing over time, developing both pupil’s writing stamina and high quality outcomes.
• Understand the concept of Sentence Stacking and learn how to maximise its impact for non-fiction writing.
• Grasp how to effectively support children’s transition from guided, teacher modelled sessions to independent writing, enabling pupils to apply their learning and demonstrate their non-fiction writing skills.
