Model Texts and Writing Practice for Years 3-4

Excel Basic Skills Writing Skills Years 3-4 by N Colvin shows middle primary students how good writing is put together, one text type at a time.

The 80-page workbook is organised into units built around narrative and non-fiction text types, from a diary recount and an information report on the bilby to an exposition, a procedure and a biography. Every unit begins with a model text, then moves into exercises on the grammar, vocabulary and punctuation that suit that kind of writing.

Visual prompts spark ideas for creative pieces, and regular review units help Year 3 and Year 4 students hold on to what they have learnt. The lift-out answer section in the centre of the book lets adults check work quickly, so it suits home practice as well as classroom use.

Add exercise books for drafting longer pieces, pick up writing supplies for everyday use, or explore more educational books from the Excel range. Students ready for a further challenge can continue with the Writing Skills Years 5-6 workbook.
