💡 Writing Process Tips

Planning: Spend time thinking before writing. Use graphic organisers, lists, or mind maps.

Drafting: Don't worry about perfection. Focus on getting your ideas down first.

Editing: Check one thing at a time (spelling, then punctuation, then grammar).

Publishing: Present your final work neatly and be proud of your effort!
