Using Project X to support<br />

<strong>Big</strong> <strong>Writing</strong> Teaching<br />

Project X and Ros Wilson’s <strong>Big</strong> <strong>Writing</strong> share<br />

many values and are both particularly<br />

powerful in helping boys to succeed.<br />

This booklet is designed to give teachers a ‘taster’<br />

of how the engaging Project X characters and<br />

resources can be used to support <strong>Big</strong> <strong>Writing</strong> in<br />

the classroom. It provides:<br />

• A very brief summary of the <strong>Big</strong> <strong>Writing</strong><br />

approach<br />

• Tips for using the Project X characters<br />

as VCOP champions<br />

• Exemplar lesson plans that show how you<br />

might use Project X to deliver <strong>Big</strong> <strong>Writing</strong><br />

at Key Stage 2<br />
