Find out new and exciting methods to teach grammar and creative writing skills with children, while learning how to turn even the most reluctant speakers in class into confident poets.
Learn how to motivate reluctant readers to excel in literacy by using football, pop culture and much more to inspire children to produce great poetry. Leave feeling confident and excited to jump into poetry back at school as it takes up a key role in the new primary curriculum.

The session will involve a number of practical activities, so pack your thinking cap and prepare to learn everything you need to know to become a primary teaching maths expert!
