Time: Tue 26 Nov 2024 09:00-12:00 | Venue: City Hall


Writing is an important lifelong skill. Children need to learn to write so they can communicate and express themselves.

Research shows that for writing to develop, you should provide young children with opportunities to build their physical strength and control in the core, upper body, hands and fingers.

As early years professionals, we play a vital role in helping children take the first steps in their writing journey.
In this half day face to face training event, we will look at the child development process and critical skills essential for future successful writers.

Writing develops alongside all learning areas, especially communication and language, reading and mathematics. The aim of the training is to provide participants with the knowledge and skills to support early mark making and writing skills.
The training will cover:

  • Child development stages
  • Key essential physical and intellectual skills
  • Activities, Provision & resources to promote writing
  • Promoting engagement through children's interests and the Characteristics of Effective Teaching and Learning
  • Stages of emergent writing

Participants will gain an understanding of:

  • The early writing process
  • Make connections between the areas of learning
  • Essential experiences and opportunities children need to develop early writing skills
