Every lesson is 1 hour and 45 minutes. For the first 45 minutes, our teachers will go through the material for the week - reading the story, explaining key vocabulary and story structure, attempting the Question Analysis with our students.
Students will then get 50 minutes to write their own composition. The remaining time will be used for revision or games, either self-guided or assigned by the teacher.

We aim to allow our students to be exposed to writing practice as much as possible. In a term, there are only a few weeks that they will not be writing a story. This includes our termly Progress Check (L12) and technique lessons (e.g. Creating a Likeable/Unlikeable Character).

Detailed marking is given for every piece of composition writing that our students attempt. You should expect the worksheets to be returned by the next week. However, for Term Tests, we allow the teachers up to 2 weeks of marking time to account for the detailed feedback that they provide for this assessment.

Yes, but registration for writing classes for P1s only start in Term 3. This is because we wish for them to build some key basic foundations in school before they attempt to write their compositions.
