As a way of sharing the learning from the Write Team project and ensuring that this learning is sustainable, Bath Festivals have produced a series of booklets and resources that contain creative teaching ideas. These resources have been developed with our writers, artists and teachers and contain starter exercises, word games and tips for using a wide variety of genres to develop speaking, listening and writing skills.
