Write Now

For teachers and families

Practice with extra support

Write Now can be used as a free supplement for pupils who need a predictable start to spelling practice, including some pupils with dyslexia or other reading and spelling difficulties.

What the platform offers

Each exercise combines a spoken word, an image and letter choices. The child can listen again, try a letter and receive a smaller set of choices for the next attempt when needed.

These features can make it easier to begin a short, shared practice activity. They do not diagnose dyslexia, treat a learning difficulty or document an individual learning effect.

Plan the practice with the child’s support team

Choose a relevant focus

Select an exercise that connects with current teaching or an agreed support goal.

Work alongside the child

Listen, name sounds and letters, and give the child time to make another attempt.

Follow up away from the screen

Use a few words from the activity in reading, writing or spoken language with the appropriate adult support.

The adult’s role remains central

A teacher, reading specialist or parent decides whether an exercise is suitable, interprets the child’s responses and chooses any next support. Use established assessment and targeted intervention when those are needed.

Write Now does not replace professional assessment, planned instruction or specialist support.
