The post FREE! Reverse Psychology – 60-minute online support circle – Primary appeared first on Louise Dawson Professional and Management Development Training.

When children can see language, they can use language – and that leads to confident, successful writing.

Join Lisa from Widgit and Emma from Mighty Writer for this powerful introductory session, where we’ll show how Widgit symbols and Mighty Writer’s sentence‑building approach work together to strengthen:

• Vocabulary and oral rehearsal
• Sentence structure and accuracy
• Transcription foundations in Reception & KS1
• Confidence for SEND, EAL and reluctant writers
• Overall independence and writing success

This practical, classroom‑focused webinar walks you through the full visual‑to‑verbal learning journey:

Picture → Symbols → Oral Sentence → Sentence Build → Writing

Please share these details with your colleagues and LSAs and they can book easily via the Mighty Writer website.
