Writing
Our Ultimate End Goal:
What will our children be able to do when they leave us?
Our ultimate end goal is for our children to leave us as articulate and imaginative communicators. They will leave able to communicate what they know about the world around them and well-equipped with the skills they need to do this effectively. They are inspired by learning from real authors who write for different purposes. Our children leave us understanding the process involved in writing effectively: how to plan, to draft and to edit before being ready to publish. Spelling, punctuation and grammar are embedded and effectively applied. Our children leave us passionate about people understanding what it is what it is they want to say and using grammatical devices to help them communicate with clarity. Ultimately, they understand that grammar helps them to say what they truly mean and for their writing to be read how they intended. Our children will have a genuine love of language and the written word, writing independently and recognising what a powerful tool writing can be. Children leave having experienced many rich, real-life experiences through which they have written for authentically and have experienced the motivation of writing for pleasure. Ultimately, they know that their writing can be used to make the world a better place to be.
