About this Event
This interactive online session will explore how we support children in refining and editing their work.
We will consider:
• The purpose and process of editing
• Curriculum expectations
• Explicitly teaching the skill of editing and proofreading
• Practical approaches and strategies to support children in improving writing in both the compositional and transcriptional elements of writing
This session is suitable for Primary Teachers, Teaching Assistants and English Subject Leaders
