KS2 Literacy Celebrates First Birthday!

Wow! I can hardly believe that a year has already gone by since setting up this site. Admittedly, I have not updated anything over the last two months due to work commitments, but over the coming weeks will return to update some new content. What I would really like to do is have a section of the website dedicated to giving good examples of writing for each genre.
You guys are still visiting the site, which is great considering my considerable absence. Anywhere between 200 and 800 visitors are coming here every day with some 700-1000 page visits daily as well. This really is a huge compliment to the site. Most of the forms filled out on the Home Page are from new users, but it would be great to see that some of you are returning on a regular basis as well.
The 'Film Narrative' page is doing particularly well, as are the Semi Colons and the Spellings Section.
Part of the reason for keeping this site free was that I knew I would not be able to give myself to these pages on a full time basis and provide a membership package worthy of your good money. So, in this second year of KeyStage2Literacy, the site and everything on it remain free for your use in class and at home. As always, please ask if there is anything you would like to see here in the coming months.
