Robin Hood Primary School

Mark-making Area

The Mark Making Area is designed to encourage and promote early writing and Mark making of different levels of control. Children are encouraged to shadow write over the letters in their name and practise pencil control sheets in straight lines and wavy lines. Children are encouraged to Mark make with purpose for example - writing their name or writing the name of who their work is for. Children are also encourage to talk about what they have written and to tell more details about their work to encourage communication and language.
