Writing outside – ELGs

Gaby and Miguel are writing to their grandma who lives in Portugal. Miguel wants to write about where he lives.

Good for looking at

• Literacy
• Writing
• Communication
• Language
• Environment
• Resources

 

The large map we saw being used earlier is now on the ground outside and the boys are using it to inform their writing.

Notice

• how the environment can be a powerful provocation for writing for a reason.

Reflect

Refer back to the ELGs for Literacy

• One of the boys is within the Writing ELG. How do you know?
• How are resources being used by the children to support what they are doing? How is the adult involved?
• Which other Early Learning Goals are being demonstrated here?
