They begin with some thought-provoking images and are followed by open ended questions or writing prompts. We recommend that these are completed in under 10 minutes and are not marked. The aim is to encourage your class to write down whatever comes to mind, and focus on completing the task rather than quality and accuracy. These short, informal lessons have many benefits, including: ✏️ focusing pupils' attention at the beginning of lessons ✏️ developing writing fluency ✏️ encouraging creative and critical thinking ✏️ reinforcing vocabulary with our word banks ✏️ demonstrating understanding of key concepts. Here are 5 quick writes for the spring season, perfect if you're short of time or need a warm up! #### A world without bees Bees are some of the most important creatures we share this planet with. What will your class think would happen if bees were no longer around to pollinate all of the flowers, fruits and vegetables? What would the world look like?

Can your class describe what they can see, hear, smell, taste and touch in the springtime? ![photo-1455479304476-b668bfbe1b0d](https://blog.pobble.com/hs-fs/hubfs/photo-1455479304476-b668bfbe1b0d.jpeg?width=752&name=photo-1455479304476-b668bfbe1b0d.jpeg)[![See the quick write](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/7873029/9a52efc6-3b6f-48c7-a033-60f8c68ed36e.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/7873029/9a52efc6-3b6f-48c7-a033-60f8c68ed36e) #### Lamb life One of the most joyful springtime sights is seeing lambs frolicking in the fields!
