Welcome to the Grade 5 G.T. Writing support website. Students preparing for examinations/tests will find resources here to support their studies. Active learners will find additional material designed, not only to support their learning of material covered in the classroom, but also, additional links and resources that they may use to extend themselves well beyond the standard expectations of the curriculum. 

Daybook

Daybook is an anthology of different genres of fiction and non-fiction selections. Through studying these pieces of writing, we will learn the techniques employed by excellent authors. You will yourselves, in turn, apply these techniques in your own writing.

Oxford Reading Tree


Oxford Reading Tree books give us an opportunity to find examples of the literary devices we are learning about through our Daybook anthology selections within the context of whole books. They are fun readings and give us a chance to explore other forms of extension such as drama.
