Starting today, teachers using Writer’s Toolbox online writing tool will have access to over 500 classroom-ready writing tasks aligned with the student Learning Journey. Designed to support busy teachers to keep their classroom active, there are hundreds of engaging writing activities to suit every student, in every year level, ability, and skill. We can already sense your relief.
“There’s lots of talk today about the explicit teaching of writing. But what do you actually teach? SubjectLand solves this challenge. Every year level; every writing skill a student needs to master is here—for a student’s entire schooling career,” says Dr Ian Hunter, Founder of Writer’s Toolbox. “It gives teachers real solutions to the problem of writing improvement.”
With each task designed to test core student writing skills and progress, SubjectLand integrates seamlessly with each student learning. Similar to the instant-feedback feature of Toolbox—designed to increase teacher efficiency in the classroom—SubjectLand offers an incredible selection of educational writing tasks that can either be customised or assigned to the classroom as they are, saving teachers valuable time.
"Every year level; every writing skill a student needs to master is here—for a student’s entire schooling career."
To maximise not just student learning but also help teachers be most effective with their time, tasks contain comprehensive details and teaching tips. Together with advanced search features including Year, Subject, and Skill, finding the perfect writing activity for each classroom is as much fun as the activity itself.
“It’s been three years in the making, involving every team in our business. We feel that now, more than ever, we need to do whatever is in our power to help lift writing outcomes in schools,” says Dr Hunter. “That’s why we made SubjectLand a free available feature inside Toolbox, so every teacher can start using it from today.”
