This complete scheme of work - inspired by the Jane Constantine ‘The Write Stuff Approach’ and Cornerstones Topic, ‘A Child’s War’ - contains everything you need to deliver an inspiring and engaging scheme based on The Blitz, Evacuees and WWII.

The content of this scheme has been created in line with DfE guidance, ensuring lessons are progressive, scaffolded and allow children to attain key learning objectives in English. Jane Constantine’s ‘The Write Stuff Approach’ - Improving Outcomes in Writing As a school, we have adopted ‘The Write Stuff’ by Jane Constantine to bring clarity to the mechanics of writing. ‘The Write Stuff’ follows a method called ‘Sentence Stacking’ which refers to the fact that sentences are stacked together and organised to engage children with short, intensive moments of learning that they can then immediately apply to their own writing. This approach makes sure that all of our children are exposed to high quality texts that stimulate quality responses to reading, high quality writing and purposeful speaking and listening opportunities. Our curriculum ensures that all children have plenty of opportunities to write for different purposes. We encourage writing through all curriculum areas and use quality reading texts to model examples of good writing. Writing is taught through a number of different strategies. We believe that children need lots of rich speaking and drama activities to give them the imagination and the experiences that will equip them to become good writers.
