Language links
1 total work
Separate self-contained units deal with topics such as standard English and the writing process with sections detailed for works on the parts of speech identified in the National Curriculum proposals for Key Stages 3 & 4, on punctuation and sentence building. As linguistic terms are introduced they are contextualised through illustration and example and practised in real writing assignments. The extracts used in "Language Links 1" feature a wide range of contemporary fiction writers as well as offering considerable non-narrative material. The information about language is repeated in handy fact boxes for easy reference.
