Move It! Make It! Mark It!

Playful Pre-Writing Invitations for EYFS

Big movements, little movements and lots of opportunities to explore!

Move It! Make It! Mark It! is a collection of 12 visual activity cards designed to help children explore pre-writing patterns through movement, hands-on experiences and mark-making.

Each card features three simple, practical activities:

MOVE IT! Explore the pattern using big body movements, ribbons, scarves and wands.

MAKE IT! Create the pattern using loose parts, sticks, string, playdough and everyday classroom resources.

MARK IT! Explore the pattern through chalk, paint, sand, foam and other mark-making experiences.

Each card also includes a SAY IT! phrase to support adults in modelling the movement and introducing simple, memorable language.

What's included?

• 12 printable pre-writing pattern activity cards, that also come as a powerpoint too.

• A supporting adult prompt guide with ideas for modelling, questioning and observing children's learning.

• 
  

Print them, laminate them, display them in provision or use them to inspire your next pre-writing experience!

Because developing foundational writing skills should be full of opportunities to move, explore, play and practise!
