Phase 2: It is a 1-to-4 course. Leo Education's 11+ Non-Fiction Writing course is designed to equip students aged 9-11 with essential writing skills that extend beyond creative storytelling, focusing on structured, informative, and persuasive writing. Throughout the course, students will explore a variety of non-fiction text types, including diary entries, newspaper reports, persuasive letters, book reviews, and non-chronological reports. They will learn how to effectively analyse, plan, and craft these text types using key techniques such as DAFOREST (Direct Address, Alliteration, Facts, Opinions, Rhetorical Questions, Emotive Language, Statistics, and Triplets). By the end of the course, students will have developed the ability to convey information clearly and convincingly, preparing them for both academic assessments and everyday communication tasks. 1: Lesson Objective: To identify and compare different non-fiction text types.
