David Waugh is a former deputy headteacher who worked in ITT
from 1990 at the University of Hull, where he led the PGCE course
and became Head of Department. In 2008 he was appointed as one of
two (the other being Wendy) National Strategies Regional Advisers
for ITT. He is currently lectures at Durham University. He has
published extensively in primary English, as well as developing
e-learning resources for National Strategies for English,
mathematics and mentoring and coaching. David also writes
children’s stories, including The Wishroom, which was written
with 45 children from 15 East Durham primary schools and published
in 2017.
As with so many things in life, children learn best by example, so
teachers need to be able to model good writing skills. The authors
spend their time modelling writing for other teachers and that
practical experience shines through in this book, which is full of
inspiring ideas. The ideas are easy to use and cover a wide range
of different writing genres, including poetry, fanfiction and film.
The activities are well defined and offer excellent ideas, along
with case studies to show the concepts in practice. A valuable book
for both new and experienced teachers.
