Story Writing Skills for Years 5 and 6

Excel Basic Skills Creative Writing Workbook Years 5-6 by Alan Horsfield helps upper primary students build the imagination and craft they need to write stronger stories.

The paperback works as a practical guide to fiction writing, introducing one skill at a time with a short explanation or quick review of what students need to know. Children practise developing ideas, shaping narratives, and writing description and dialogue, and extracts from published stories show how experienced authors have handled the same techniques.

Self-contained units mix plenty of examples, writing tips, reading tasks and exercises, so children can work steadily through the book or dip into the skill they need most. Sample answers to every question give parents and teachers a clear reference point.

A helpful bridge for students moving towards high school writing. Explore more educational books, compare titles in our educational activity books range, and add writing supplies for school for drafting.
