An EYFS Literacy Planning Overview provides a clear, structured framework to support early writing, reading and communication development across the early years setting. It is designed to help practitioners deliver engaging, age-appropriate literacy experiences that build confidence and foundational skills in line with early learning goals. The overview includes a range of practical lesson ideas that can be easily adapted to suit different cohorts and learning needs. These activities are designed to encourage children’s speaking and listening skills, early mark-making, phonological awareness, and emerging writing confidence through play-based and purposeful learning opportunities. It also provides suggested children’s word banks to support independent writing. These vocabulary ideas are carefully selected to match themes and topics, helping children access and use new language in their own work while developing sentence-building skills in a meaningful context. In addition, the resource includes model text examples to support practitioner modelling and shared writing. These examples demonstrate clear, simple structures that children can explore, imitate, and adapt in their own learning. They are intended to support both adult-led input and continuous provision writing opportunities. A selection of supporting resources is included to enhance teaching and learning; however, not all materials are provided in full due to copyright restrictions. This ensures that the overview remains compliant while still offering a rich bank of adaptable ideas and prompts that practitioners can use to create engaging literacy experiences. Overall, the EYFS Literacy Planning Overview is designed to support high-quality provision, promote early writing development, and inspire confident, independent communicators through purposeful and creative literacy activities.

PowerPoint Resource – Modelling Simple Sentence Writing (Phase 2 Phonics) This PowerPoint is designed to support early writing by modelling how to compose simple sentences and captions based on images. Each slide features a clear, engaging picture to prompt discussion and idea generation, giving children a meaningful context for writing. The teacher uses the images to model how to orally rehearse a sentence before writing it, demonstrating key skills such as segmenting words using Phase 2 phonics, saying the sentence slowly, and writing it in a clear, simple form. The suggested sentence for each image is provided in the slide notes, allowing practitioners to confidently model accurate sentence structure while adapting to children’s responses. The focus is on short, achievable sentences using decodable words, helping children to apply their phonics knowledge in writing. Teachers can also model key concepts such as: Saying a sentence out loud before writing Finger spaces between words Writing from left to right Using initial sounds and simple CVC words Re-reading to check it makes sense The resource is flexible and can be used in whole-class teaching, small groups, or as part of continuous provision enhancements.

PowerPoint Resource – Phase 2 CVC Word Writing This PowerPoint is designed to support children in applying their Phase 2 phonics knowledge to write simple CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words. Each slide includes a clear, engaging image (e.g. dog, sun) to provide a visual prompt for identifying and writing the corresponding word. The teacher models how to say the word aloud, listen for each sound, and segment it into individual phonemes before writing. The correct CVC word is provided in the slide notes, enabling practitioners to confidently model accurate sound-to-letter correspondence while responding to children’s ideas. The focus is on building confidence in segmenting and encoding, using familiar Phase 2 sounds. Teachers can model key early writing skills such as: Saying the word slowly and clearly Segmenting into individual sounds (e.g. c-a-t) Matching each sound to the correct grapheme Writing in the correct order from left to right Re-reading the word to check it The PowerPoint can be used flexibly across whole-class teaching, guided groups, or as part of continuous provision to reinforce phonics learning.

Continuous Provision Plan Template – Outdoor Provision This template is designed to support practitioners in planning, observing, and developing high-quality outdoor continuous provision. It promotes an intentional and reflective approach to outdoor learning, recognising the unique opportunities the outdoor environment offers for physical development, exploration, and open-ended play. Each section of the template supports effective practice: Area Identifies the specific outdoor provision space (e.g. mud kitchen, water area, construction, gross motor, sand, small world, mark-making). This ensures a broad and balanced outdoor offer. Look, Listen, Note Captures meaningful observations of children’s play, language, and interactions outdoors. This helps practitioners understand interests, schemas, and developmental needs in a more active, exploratory context. Permanent Resources Lists the core, consistently available resources that enable children to access the area independently. These should be durable, open-ended, and suitable for outdoor use. Enhanced Resources Details any additional or seasonal enhancements introduced to extend learning, respond to children’s interests, or create new provocations. These are carefully planned to deepen engagement and challenge thinking. Photos Provides visual evidence of the provision and how children interact with it. This supports reflection, assessment, and sharing practice with colleagues and families. Vocabulary Identifies key language that practitioners will model and reinforce during outdoor play, supporting communication and language development in a rich, real-world context. Why this? Explains the purpose of the provision, including how it supports areas of learning such as physical development, problem-solving, teamwork, and the characteristics of effective learning. Why now? (Skills Progression) Links the provision to children’s current developmental stages and next steps. Ensures that outdoor experiences are appropriately challenging and support progression over time.

Continuous Provision Plan Template – Indoor Provision This template is designed to support practitioners in planning, observing, and enhancing indoor continuous provision in a purposeful and structured way. It encourages a reflective approach to how environments are organised, how children engage within them, and how provision evolves to support learning and development. Each section of the template serves a specific purpose: Area Identifies the specific provision space (e.g. role play, construction, writing, maths, creative area), ensuring coverage across all areas of learning. Look, Listen, Note Focuses on high-quality observations. Practitioners record what children are doing, saying, and demonstrating, allowing planning to be responsive to interests and developmental needs. Permanent Resources Lists the core resources that are consistently available in the area. These provide stability, promote independence, and ensure continuous access to key learning opportunities. Enhanced Resources Highlights any additional or temporary resources introduced to extend learning, respond to interests, or introduce new concepts. These enhancements are intentional and linked to observations. Photos Visual documentation of the provision and how it is used. This supports reflection, assessment, and communication with colleagues and families. Vocabulary Identifies key words and language that practitioners will model and reinforce within the area, supporting communication and language development. Why this? Explains the rationale behind the provision, including how it supports specific areas of learning, characteristics of effective learning, or identified needs/interests. Why now? (Skills Progression) Links provision to children’s current stage of development. This ensures that enhancements and experiences are appropriately challenging and support progression over time.
