Write to Choose, The

Synopsis: Learning to read and write, and to write creatively, is a hard task for most children, and for those with learning difficulties it is especially hard. In the two schools visited in this programme, various approaches are taken: listening and talking, practical experience by the children, and joint projects. One group writes stories for younger children. In a unit for children with langauge and speech difficulties children are encouraged to express themselves through personal story telling.

They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
