About Writing Resources
Writing resources give Australian primary teachers the structured support they need to teach students to write clearly, confidently, and for a range of purposes and audiences. From early mark-making and letter formation in Foundation to persuasive essays, narrative writing, and research reports in upper primary, quality writing resources help teachers plan explicit, scaffolded writing instruction that builds skills progressively across the year levels.
TeachBuySell's writing collection spans all text types in the Australian Curriculum: English writing strand, including narrative, informational, persuasive, procedural, and poetic writing. Browse writing prompt cards, genre teaching sequences, scaffolded planning templates, mentor text analysis activities, editing and proofreading checklists, and anchor charts for your classroom walls. Many resources include modelled and shared writing components, making it easy to implement a whole-class writing workshop or structured literacy approach.
Effective writing instruction also builds grammar, punctuation, spelling, and vocabulary knowledge — skills that are reinforced when students apply them in authentic writing contexts. Many of our writing resources include explicit grammar and language features instruction linked to the text type being taught, helping students understand why writers make the choices they do. Browse our writing collection to find resources that inspire students to write and give you the tools to teach writing with confidence.
