The Storm Whale writing sheets

A differentiated writing resource based on the beautiful story The Storm Whale, designed for Early Years and SEND classrooms. Perfect for autistic pupils, and children developing early writing confidence.

These simple and supportive writing sheets allow pupils to build sentences independently by choosing their answers through circling picture or word options before copying the completed sentence below. This structured approach reduces cognitive load while encouraging sentence building, reading, and mark making skills.

Symbol-supported vocabulary and visuals
Simple copy writing opportunities
Differentiated recording sheets
Large writing spaces for emerging writers
Repetitive sentence structures to support communication and confidence
Symbol marking checklist for use alongside pupils during assessment
Early writing assessment support for SEND learners

Ideal for literacy lessons, provision activities, interventions, and evidence gathering in Early Years, autism provision, and SEND classrooms. The symbol marking checklist helps practitioners assess engagement, communication, pencil control, copying skills, and sentence understanding in a supportive and accessible way.
