I'm so impressed with the independent writing today. We planned a report together and we thought of actions to help us remember the information. Gwaith da pawb 🌟

We had a penguin visitor to our classroom this week! 😱 The children loved seeing a penguin in the classroom and it was a great hook to our new T4W text ‘The Penguin Who Wanted to Find Out’ #talkforwriting #AuthorsOfTwitter #AugmentedReality

We have had so much fun writing our own invisibility spells and learning how to green screen to transform our spells into ‘reality’. #TalkforWriting Pie Corbett

Great example of using poetry to support prose from the Year 6 children at Countess Anne, Herts.

'Tenticles of pixilated mist crept through the vents.'

Wow! Keep doing what you're doing team. 👏💥 @talkforwriting

Y6 are really enjoying 'The Catch': an action-packed text to engage all. The embellished version, and use of the margin, is enabling writers to innovate more deeply and move further from the model, using their bank of toolkits. We love TalkforWriting! Thank you Jamie Thomas

Well done to this week’s and last week’s Star Writers! ✍🏽🌟 P2/3 have been focusing on descriptive writing with several key steps to success. After a visit from a witch last week, this week we had a surprise visit from Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. 🙈 #talkforwriting #bigwriting

Teak class PWS innovated a poem about refuge by Pie Corbett for National Poetry Day. Lots of shared writing, idea gathering and magpieing! #talkforwriting #nationalpoetryday

In Reception, we have been retelling and innovating the story ‘Owl Babies’. Here is Harrison with his version of the story, read with beautiful expression! We are so proud of you Harrison! 🐯 Pie Corbett #TalkforWriting #Talk4Writing

We were loving taking our procedural writing to create a whole class book which we published online. Any Giant hunters out there, this is the book for you! #talkforwriting Book Creator Team 🌈 #OLRDigital

Year Three’s chairs went on strike this morning, they wanted an apology for being swung on and to be persuaded to come back to work. Year 3 had to work all morning on the floor! Hopefully their letters are persuasive enough🤞🏼 #persuasivewriting #year3 #talkforwriting

Ready for a great Talk for Writing conference with Pie Corbett #writing #talkforwriting #purpose
