English Literacy Club
Reading and writing for children who already speak English
For children who already speak English confidently and want to develop their reading, writing, grammar and literary skills through stories, books and creative activities. In a small community of young readers, they share ideas, listen to one another and discover books from different cultures.
Who is it for?
Children aged 8–12 who already speak English confidently, at home or at school, and want to read and write it better. This is not a beginner class.
What happens in a session?
Each session is built around a story, a book extract or a short text. Children read and discuss it together, work on a point of grammar or vocabulary that comes out of it, then write something of their own: a new ending, a letter, a poem or a short story.
