Writing Development
Ensuring writing development in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) involves creating an environment and experiences that encourage and support young children's writing skills. Here are some of the strategies we have embedded to promote writing development in EYFS:
1. Create a Literacy-Rich Environment
2. Focus on Fine Motor Skills
3. Encourage Mark Making
4. Storytelling and Oral Language
5. Support Phonics and Letter Formation
6. Incorporate Technology
7. Promote Writing through Play
8. Use Individualised Approaches
9. Positive Reinforcement
By fostering an environment that encourages writing from an early age, integrating phonics and letter formation activities, and supporting children in exploring their own stories and ideas, we ensure their writing development in the EYFS.
