Quick writes

Also known as: quick writing prompts, minisagas, drabbles, microfiction

Quick writes involve students writing rapidly and without stopping in response to a prompt, such as an open-ended question, photograph, 360º image, meme, audio clip or short video. 

They:

• provide educators with an opportunity to informally assess students' thinking

• support students to develop writing fluency and create a habit of reflection

• encourage the development of ideas and creative expression, with a minimal focus on structure and refinement.
