The Drawing Club and Foundations of Early Writing workshop will be held at the Kent Room in Swansea Guildhall on 20 October 2026. Participants will explore how Drawing Club, talk, and play support children's journey into early writing.
Explore how Drawing Club, talk & play support children’s journey into early writing through authentic, developmentally appropriate practice.
Trosolwg: Mae’r dysgu proffesiynol hwn yn cefnogi ymarferwyr i ddeall sut mae ysgrifennu cynnar yn datblygu o siarad, chwarae a lluniadu i farcio ac ysgrifennu pwrpasol. Gan ddefnyddio egwyddorion Y Clwb Darlunio, bydd y sesiwn yn archwilio sut i greu profiadau llythrennedd cyfoethog, dilys a datblygiadol briodol sy’n cefnogi dychymyg, iaith lafar ac annibyniaeth.
Cynulleidfa darged: Uwch arweinwyr, arweinwyr Dysgu Sylfaen a/neu lythrennedd, athrawon, HLTA a chynorthwywyr addysgu.
Nodau’r sesiwn: datblygu dealltwriaeth gadarn o gynnydd mewn ysgrifennu cynnar; cynllunio profiadau llythrennedd sy’n uno siarad, adrodd straeon, lluniadu ac ysgrifennu; creu amgylcheddau ac ymyriadau sy’n cefnogi cyfansoddi cynnar; a chynyddu cyfleoedd ar gyfer ysgrifennu dilys, dan arweiniad y plentyn.
Ar gyfer gweithwyr ysgolion Abertawe yn unig.

Overview: This professional learning supports practitioners to understand how early writing develops from talk, play and drawing through to mark-making and purposeful writing. Using principles from the Drawing Club approach, the session will explore how to create rich, authentic and developmentally appropriate literacy experiences that strengthen imagination, oral language and independence.
Target audience: SLT, Foundation Learning and/or Literacy Leads, teachers, HLTAs and teaching assistants.
Session aims: to develop a secure understanding of progression in early writing; plan literacy experiences that integrate talk, storytelling, drawing and writing; create environments and interactions that support early composition; and increase opportunities for authentic, child-led writing.
For Swansea school employees only.
