It starts at the roots. Literacy Tree provides book-based planning sequences, Writing Roots, which embed all aspects of the literacy curriculum and engage our children to write with clarity and purpose.
We grow literary knowledge through Literary Leaves. This is where a range of sequenced activities take children through whole books to teach reading comprehension and create critical readers. Literary Leaves uses a real variety of resources from novels, poetry collections and high-quality, non-fiction books that connect to the Writing Roots through Literary Themes.
