This work contains full range of text types to meet your shared and guided reading/writing needs at Key Stage 2. These new anthologies offer a vast selection of extracts and complete pieces in many different genres, spanning fiction, poetry, and non-fiction. The range of authors is equally broad, from classic poets and authors to modern children's favourites, and from Shakespeare to today's journalists. Each anthology corresponds to a single year of upper primary school (7-11 year olds). It includes posters: each of the key text types is reproduced on illustrated, large-format write-on, wipe-off posters. The "Teacher's Guides" give detailed information and teaching notes for each extract, with lots of ideas for shared reading and writing and group work, backed up by photocopy masters.
