Common questions
What is a Quick Write?
A Quick Write is a short burst of daily writing. Students look at a visual prompt, talk about it, then write for about five minutes, so writing becomes a habit rather than a big event.
How long does a Quick Write take?
The writing itself takes about five minutes, which makes it easy to fit at the start of your literacy block every day.
What's the difference between Quick Write units and Quick Write prompts?
Quick Write units are five-week routines with 20 visual prompts, focus vocabulary and sentence starters, matched to a Reading Fluency and Sentence of the Day unit on the same theme. Quick Write prompts are themed sets of visual prompts, such as narrative, poetry or seasonal prompts, that you can use on their own.
Which year levels are Quick Writes for?
Quick Writes are written for Years 2–6, with units for Year 2, Years 3–4 and Years 5–6, and prompt sets for Years 2–6 or Years 3–6.
