Inspire every child to feel like a real writer.

This imaginative, step-by-step poetry resource guides children through the creative process of writing their own poem based on the theme “My Ideas for Writing.” Designed for Year 6 but fully adaptable across KS2, the resource encourages pupils to explore where their writing inspiration comes from—dreams, books, nature, emotions—and transform those ideas into thoughtful, vivid poems they can be proud of.

What makes this resource special is its focus on small, manageable steps that build confidence in young writers. Each part is carefully scaffolded to support children as they move from idea generation to planning, drafting, and self-evaluation. Along the way, they are gently encouraged to experiment with poetic devices, structure, and mood, while beginning to see themselves as authors with something to say.

This is more than just a worksheet. It’s a creative writing journey that empowers children to reflect on their identity as writers and take pride in their words.

Ideal for whole-class poetry lessons, writing workshops, or one-to-one support, this editable resource provides flexibility for a range of abilities and classroom contexts.
