Guest Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Hi. My head is monitoring writing throughout the school. Looking at boys writing and how the able children are stretched. I wondered if anyone had any super ideas that would impress. We are doing the letters and sounds, Oxford Reading Tree and have a writing area and access to small whiteboards and an large interactive whiteboard for the children to use. Ability wise i am quite pleased with them so far. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Are you Reception? Is the monitoring going to be a Literacy lesson or Child Initiated? For using whiteboards the children can draw and label plans of models or labelled pictures when they are made (inside and out). Kent have quite a lot of interactive games on their website. http://www.kented.org.uk/ngfl/games/ Just a couple of ideas, I am sure others will come up with loads of others.

Marion Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 We use Ros Wilson Big Writing throughout the school and have seen significant improvements in writing and especially motivating boys. In nursery and reception we start with a BIG TALK (if they can't say a sentence they can't write it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 James Barrett who put together those games on the kent website also has his own website, google his name and you will find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) Evidence of guided writing so that you are modelling writing for them.? Access to words, maybe in the role play area or writing area, differiancated writing tasks, some maybe writing over a model, some under a model, some writing independent words, some using phonic knowledge to try to write words. Hope it might help ger Edited November 28, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
