Moving to Write
About
The new Writing Framework DfE July 2025 says:“Children need to develop the following skills in order to hold a pencil effectively:
• gross and fine motor skills to develop strength, coordination and positional awareness
• core strength, stability, balance and spatial awareness
• fine motor control and precision”
Our course ‘Moving to Write’ will focus on how to support children 2-4 years to develop the physical skills ready for later fluent writing. Children’s whole bodies are involved in handwriting.
We will aim to support Early Years Practitioners in:
• Understanding the physical development and skills that are needed for writing
• Knowing what type of environments and what activities will support development, skills and strength in bodies and fingers
• Planning for intervention - Knowing how to support children who are struggling with the tripod grip.
