FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEA new online game - SPaG Monsters - helps children aged 6-11 develop their spelling, punctuation and grammar in a fun and engaging way, closing the literacy gap widened by the pandemic.The game was created by Young Writers, a brand focusing on developing English skills for children aged 5 to 18.“This game has come from a lot of hard work, buts there’s no better time for its launch”, said Morgan Walton, Young Writers’ Director. “We’ve created SPaG Monsters to help those around the UK catch up on essential class hours they’ve missed over the past year; it will help them maintain their reading and writing skills, and they'll love playing it, too”.The online game is aimed at both schools and parents and is purposely priced at an accessible level to make it available to all. Since the game’s launch just over a month ago, over 1,500 children have developed their learning by playing SPaG mini-games over 100,000 times.“It’s wonderful to see so many people take to SPaG Monsters and enjoy playing it. I know it’s making a difference by helping these children learn, and it’s the best feeling to undo some of the negative effects since the pandemic began,” said Ben Reeves, author and SPaG Monsters’ creator.Within SPaG Monsters are mini-games, each focusing on various aspects of core literacy skills. Parents and teachers are able to monitor the progress of their children to see weaker areas to support their learning in the best way.“The buzz from my children about grammar in the past week has been phenomenal” said Ms Turner, a teacher at Tenterfields Primary Academy. “It has been brilliant to see something they usually don't enjoy change into something they ask to do”.More on the game can be found at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.youngwriters.co.uk/spag-monsters">www.youngwriters.co.uk/spag-monsters</a>, and anyone can try it for free without having to provide any payment information.

Closing the literacy gap: New EdTech game supports students struggling after the pandemic

The Complete Writer’s Toolkit – Young Adults Edition guides young adults on their writing journeys from idea conception, through developing writing skills, all the way to printed copies of their books. Aimed at those aged 13+, the toolkit was released by Young Writers this week and helps bring accessibility into the printing and writing realms. “Young Writers has been working for over 30 years towards our goal of fostering a love of writing in children and young adults” said Morgan Walton, Young Writers’ Director. “The Toolkit helps us achieve this goal by making it accessible for young writers to develop their skills and have their very own books delivered to their front door”. The Toolkit includes a comprehensive writing guide which leads authors through the process of writing a book. Also included is a grammar guide, materials including a pen and notepad, as well as access to an online portal where writers are helped to design a book cover and type up their masterpieces. Finally, young authors will receive five professionally printed copies of their book to their door as part of the package. The Toolkit was designed and developed by author and YouTuber Ben Reeves. Reeves has been writing for over 15 years and makes content to support other writers in developing skills and becoming authors. “The Toolkit is so exciting because it’s such a head-start for aspiring writers. It can be very difficult to learn the ins-and-outs of writing fiction, but I’ve poured everything I know into this box” Reeves said, “all the most useful tips and advice, condensed into an easy-to-understand format. And with the five free copies of their book, I know it’ll inspire young writers everywhere”. Reeves created the writing guide for the Toolkit from his years of experience in the industry. He hopes to inspire young writers to develop the confidence to do what they love. The Toolkit is available at https://www.youngwriters.co.uk/toolkit-young-adults and is priced at £97. This includes delivery of both the kit, the final copies of the writer’s books, as well as access to the online writing portal.

Young Writers are launching the brand-new competition “Pandemic Poetry – Futures of Hope” which aims to bring together young poets across the UK and help them look towards their futures. With a top prize of £100, the competition is open to those aged 5-18 years and encourages writers to focus their creative skills as a productive outlet to help deal with last year’s events. Throughout the pandemic, children and young adults have missed weeks of important education and social events impacting key stages of their development. Young Writers are aiming to help tackle this with the new competition. “Writing has been a lifeline to many throughout lockdown. We’ve received countless pieces of writing about young people’s thoughts and feelings surrounding the pandemic” said Morgan Walton, Young Writers’ director. “We wanted to create a dedicated space to help poets express themselves safely, whilst creating community and building hope for the younger generation to grow and move forward”, Walton said. Open to all, the competition asks poets to express their feelings, hopes, and concerns over their futures. Creating a final body of work will allow writers to see their words among others with similar feelings about the recent year, letting them know they’re not alone and that their voices are heard. There are no line or form constraints to entries, and the top prize will be awarded £100 and a Young Writers trophy. Two runners up will win Highly Commended Young Writer’s trophies. The deadline for entries is June 27th 2021. Find out more about the competition <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.youngwriters.co.uk/competitions/all-ages/pandemic-poetry">here.</a>

New poetry competition for young poets aims to create community and bring hope after lockdown

The inspirational 7-year-old, who is currently non-verbal, channelled her creativity through cue cards to curate a mini-saga which is to be published in an upcoming Young Writers anthology.&nbsp; Amelia was diagnosed with Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) at birth, a type of brain damage occurring in newborns resulting from a shortage of oxygen and blood flow to the brain. Amelia was in intensive care for six weeks shortly after coming into the world; her prognosis wasn’t hopeful.“She wouldn’t know who we were, wouldn’t know herself in the world”, Amelia’s mother explained. After giving birth to Amelia, Natalie wasn’t able to see her new baby daughter for 17 days, “They told me it was dangerous to hope; at that moment, my world fell apart”.Fast-forwarding to today, and Amelia is a beacon of light and happiness. She uses a wheelchair to navigate and can communicate with visual cues provided by her parents.When Amelia entered her story “The Woods” into the Young Writers&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.youngwriters.co.uk/competitions/KS2/awanderinthewoods?view=ind">A wander in the Woods</a>&nbsp;competition, her parents had no idea. Beaming with pride, Amelia came home one day with a talent for writing certificate in hand.“She’s shown us there is hope and that it’s not dangerous to have hope. It’s that hope that sparked things in our family to encourage Amelia to be the best possible version of herself”, Natalie explained.&nbsp;Amelia’s mini-saga will now be published in an upcoming anthology, and therefore kept in the British library for eternity. Her journey is nothing but inspirational, symbolises overcoming odds, and achieving incredible feats.&nbsp;A full interview with Amelia’s mum can be found here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5hi1WO_BAY&amp;t=16s
