Grammarsaurus

This is the ultimate all-in-one guide for teaching writing, spelling, punctuation and grammar in the primary classroom. Providing practical advice on teaching grammar and writing techniques through the use of non-fiction texts, Grammarsaurus is closely aligned to the National Curriculum and ensures teachers are addressing the right topics at the right time.

Each section focuses on a non-fiction text type: discussion, persuasion, recounts, non-chronological reports, instructions and explanations. Using annotated sample texts for each year group, teachers are guided through the grammar, spelling and punctuation opportunities for each one, saving hours of research and planning.

Expert teachers and creators of the popular Grammarsaurus website, Mitch Hudson and Anna Richards answer common questions from teachers: ‘When should I teach this punctuation mark?', or 'Which spelling objectives should I be teaching my Year 3 class?’. With quality, modelled texts and up-to-­date content using the latest curriculum framework, teachers can feel confident in tackling writing and SPaG across all the key areas of non-fiction.
