Designed to support writing projects, this volume offers advice to children on writing a play. It makes suggestions to guide and encourage children to be creative - whilst delivering and reviewing basic skills. It is part of a series seeking to provide both dip-in resources to support the National Curriculum and the National Literacy strategy and "from cover to cover" projects to produce one or more pieces of extended writing, or multiple pieces of shorter work. The books should also help readers to evaluate work (theirs and that of others) as well as helping them make their own work.
