Early Writing



   £49
A unique pack containing a DVD, workshop and photocopiable paper resources. A hands-on learning resource [rooted in research] for those working with young children. A learning tool concerning children’s developmental writing progress that is practical and accessible.

This unique pack features a DVD of a child making her first marks at an early age. It demonstrates clearly and amusingly the initial steps that most children make as they progress along the road to becoming a ‘real’ writer. Research was the impetus for the creation of the included pack of resources which help capture children’s enthusiasm for making marks.
