Publisher's Synopsis
TreeTops Storywriter is part of a structured reading programme for juniors from Oxford Reading Tree, Levels 9-16 and comprises: CD-ROMs, Pupils' Books and Teacher's Guides, one for each year group from Year 3/P4-Year 6/P7. Each CD-ROM provides a unique planning grid, enabling the children to plan and structure their story before they begin to write, as well as support for improving and 'publishing' their writing. It contains specially commissioned, complete stories by top TreeTops authors which demonstrate the key features of each fiction text type. The Imagination Springboards section is packed with games and ideas for 'short-burst' creative writing, and the Writer's Toolkit is a handy reference bank to help children with the basics of grammar and punctuation, settings and characters. The CD-ROM also provides teacher prompts for each screen to help teachers model the writing process, and audio tips and hints throughout for pupils working independently. Used alongside the Pupil Book, this invaluable writing tool puts the fun back into story writing through ICT, and makes the worry of a blank sheet of paper a thing of the past.
