Have you seen any of these mystical creatures? Ash Class have been working hard to create information texts. We have been focusing on using questions to hook the reader, adjectives to describe features and conjunctions. Please be on the lookout! @PieCorbett @Talk4Writing

✏️Lovely video from @PennWoodSchool in Slough – one of our Training Centres.

Penn Wood is a 3 form entry school. 89% of children have English as an additional language & 37% receive Pupil Premium.

91% of the children reached the expected level in writing in the SATs using TfW.
