The making of books provides motivation and a purpose for writing. How to be Brilliant at Making Books gives children a greater appreciation and awareness of audience and helps them to develop their own critical evaluation skills.
The 40 photocopiable worksheets in this book encourage a wide range of skills allowing Key Stage 2 (KS2) children to compose, create, publish and respond to print. The technological side of book production involves lots of problem solving and engages children in gathering information, prioritizing, negotiating, decision-making and evaluating.
