Inspire confident, creative writing with our collection of picture writing prompts, writing frames and complete the picture writing activities for EYFS and primary classrooms. Each resource provides an engaging visual writing stimulus, helping pupils generate ideas, develop vocabulary and approach writing with greater confidence.
Use these flexible writing activities for stories, descriptions, diary entries, recounts, explanations, poems and other age-appropriate writing outcomes. Many of the resources encourage children to complete an unfinished illustration before they write, giving every pupil ownership of their ideas and making each response unique.
Visit our Writing Prompts hub for teaching ideas, practical guidance and creative ways to use picture writing prompts and writing frames across EYFS and primary.
Our creative writing resources are designed to help teachers give children a meaningful reason to write. The open-ended illustrations can be interpreted in different ways, encouraging discussion, imagination and original ideas before pupils begin putting pen to paper.
These visual writing prompts are suitable for whole-class teaching, guided writing, independent writing, morning work, continuous provision and intervention activities. Different layouts and line heights make them easy to adapt for a range of ages, abilities and writing objectives.
New writing stimuli are added regularly, including resources linked to curriculum topics, seasonal events and imaginative themes. Explore the collection to find ready-to-use writing frames and picture prompts that help pupils develop ideas, vocabulary and writing confidence.
