Series 2 | Lesson 9
Creators | Claire Saxby & Jess McGeachin
In this lesson we’ll join Claire and Jess to explore all things fact and information.
And we’ll learn about just some of the different kinds of non-fiction writing, and how these very clever writers craft their fascinating ‘fact books’.
Resources include lesson plans for middle and upper primary students, each with their own activities and supporting resources.
