50 daily narrative writing prompts for Year 1 students, fully aligned to the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0 (AC V9.0) English — drawing on the Language, Literature and Literacy strands.
Each prompt page includes:
A large drawing box with a draw-and-plan prompt
An open narrative prompt with guiding questions (e.g. "Write about your favourite animal. What does it look like? What can it do?")
An extension challenge to stretch confident writers
Name and date fields
Wide ruled writing lines
Prompts introduce a character, a setting and something that happens — moving students from single words and labels to simple connected sentences, in line with the Year 1 achievement standard. The draw-then-write structure is retained from Foundation, with the balance shifting toward writing across the term. Australian spelling and contexts throughout.
Also included:
A curriculum-link page with the exact AC V9.0 Year 1 content descriptor codes
The Year 1 achievement standard, plus a plain-English explanation
An explanation of how the prompts connect to the curriculum — perfect for sharing with parents or curriculum leaders
