Using interviews, anecdotes, memoirs and\/or accounts from the women (or, where appropriate, their children), the book tells the womens personal accounts of what their lives were like and what particular experiences they had while serving.  They were all ordinary British women, and tell here in their own words their experiences on active service.  Their accounts cover the whole spectrum, from famous battles, such as Monte Cassino, to being shipwrecked by a tornado, to simple acts of kindness, which in themselves seem nothing, but at the same time meant something very specialto those young women, and were fondly remembered, even sixty years afterwards.

It brings together the early learning goals of the foundation stage and the national literacy strategy objectives, using structured play, games and fun activities to put across the relevant teaching points in an enjoyable way, while simultaneously nurturing a love of literature. Each book presents structured activities based around suggested focus texts. To help practitioners save time in planning and organizing, the materials needed and the preparation required for each session are described in detail. The activities have been designed to cater to different achievement levels, and can be adapted or added to according to the needs of individual children and settings. Follow-up activities are also suggested, to bring in wider aspects of the Early Learning Goals and the NLS objectives.   Elements of this book include exploring well-loved traditional stories and quality familiar modern stories by established authors; using the texts as a basis to focus on specific literacy goals and objectives; using the texts as a stimulus for games and play activities that help to teach literacy skills; planning and preparation for each literacy session, including materials needed and scripted sessions; ideas for working and playing with the whole group and smaller groups to consolidate the literacy skill; and extension ideas and activities.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51225648627985,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51225650954513,"sku":"NIN9781853469596","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52124033777937,"sku":"NLS9781853469596","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1853469599.jpg?v=1751091675"},{"product_id":"poetry-teacher-s-toolkit-book-collette-drifte-9781853468216","title":"A Poetry Teacher's Toolkit","description":"Professional poets spend many hours crafting a finished piece of work, yet we expect children in school to sit down and write when they are told to, whether they feel inspired or not. This series of four books is a toolkit to help you build a positive framework for children to read, write, understand and enjoy poetry - to bring a creative spark to the poetry classroom. A combination of featured poems, creative ideas, structured lesson plans and differentiated photocopiable activity sheets gives the series a uniquely flexible approach - which means you can use the materials in any classroom context.   If you're wary of poetry, if you think it's boring, or if you're nervous about teaching poetry, then you've chosen the right book.    Key themes covered in  BOOK 4: Language and Performance are moods and feelings through the use of effective language; nonsense and humorous verse; the continuity and links between ancient and modern, between nursery and playground rhymes and Shakespeare; whatever our ability, there is a place for everyone on the poetry 'ladder'; and performance poetry.   Other books in the series are: BOOK 1:Words and Wordplay; BOOK 2: Rhymes, Rhythms and Rattles;and BOOK 3: Style, Shape and Structure.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52127484281105,"sku":"NLS9781853468216","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781853468216.jpg?v=1757486864"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-collette-drifte.oembed?page=2","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
