Targeting Writing Skills Year 3 Workbook

Targeting Writing Skills Year 3 teaches the structure of informative, imaginative and persuasive texts alongside the fundamentals of grammar.

Written by Norah Colvin for the Pascal Press Targeting range, this paperback program is organised into four terms. Each text type is introduced through an annotated model, then units follow a gradual release of responsibility: the teacher explains the model, students identify its features with support, and finally they write their own text from a given stimulus.

Along the way students practise planning, drafting, receiving feedback and revising, then check their own work against the required structure and parts of speech. The last unit each term adapts an existing text by changing characters, setting or point of view, helpful for NAPLAN-style writing preparation.

Each term closes with a review, and answers are printed at the back for checking work. Teachers and parents can find related educational books, activity books and writing supplies for Year 3 literacy.
