Synopsis

"Writing to 14" offers students at Key Stage 3 a step-by-step guide to improving their writing. Two major sections on Fiction and Non-fiction highlight key forms - including essays, letters, instructions and news articles - and offer students guidance on essential techniques (including how to use emotive language in persuasive texts, how to build quotations into literature-based essays, how to structure an argument, how to write convincing dialogue). Students develop their skills through short activities in these first two sections, while a third section offers preparation for the Key Stage 3 test plus extended writing assignments.
