Writing
Writing at the Bridge is interpreted as an activity that communicates and records events, experiences, information, thoughts and feelings. The most appropriate form of recording should be selected according to pupil’s need for example, using objects, picture, photographs, symbols and text, drawing, typing and ICT, working with an adult as a scribe or a combination of these.
Writing for children at The Bridge will involve a range of different activities such as:
- Pre-writing activities / mark making.
- Development of gross / fine motor activities to promote skill development.
- Opportunities to see text (symbols, photos and words) being constructed.
- Word, symbol, object, sound and letter matching.
- Consistent and correct modelling of letter formation.
- Use of ICT hardware (e.g. switches, microphones, keyboards) and software to record information (e.g. Purple Mash).
