Becoming a writer is complex. This training session will focus on the process of writing from physical elements to the Early Learning Goal.

The session will:

  • demonstrate ways in which early writing can be developed
  • look at how to support those children who struggle with fine motor skills in their early writing
  • provide practical advice, including suggestions of activities and resources
  • discuss the role of the adult and the environment, and look at examples of writing with a focus on effective moderation

You will learn:

  • how to plan and provide provision to support writers
  • how to model and guide children to make progress in their writing
  • how to evaluate examples of writing towards the Early Learning Goal for Writing

Previous participant feedback:

  • I really enjoyed this session because it gave so many ideas. I was reminded of the developmental stages such as the shoulder pivot, elbow, wrist and developing fine motor development and examples of how to support this.
  • Very helpful in generating ideas to enhance what we are providing currently.
  • I have new ideas for my writing area! I want to get on with changing it already!

This session is aimed at Early Years ECTs & Teachers and EYFS Practitioners, Teaching Assistants and those aiming to build their confidence and develop ideas for ways in which they can support children towards achieving the Early Learning Goal for Writing.
