Summary Note "Interweaving theory and research with everyday practice, the book offers guidance on all aspects of writing, from creating multimodal texts and building children's vocabulary, to providing support for children who find writing particularly challenging. With appropriate strategies to develop children's writing from an early age included throughout, the book discusses the role of oral language in early writing in detail and explores the key relationship between 'drawing and talking', 'drawing and writing' and 'drawing, talking and writing'. Each chapter also features samples of writing and drawing to illustrate key points, as well as reflective questions to help the reader apply ideas in their own settings." - Back cover.
