NAPLAN Writing Tools for the Modern Classroom

Give your students the typing confidence they need for the online format (Years 5-9) and writing fundamentals (Year 3).

Why use naplanwriting.com.au?

Exact Simulation

We replicate the constraints of the real test: a strict 42-minute timer and an editor with no spell-check. It trains students to rely on their own proofreading skills.

Instant Prompts

Stop wasting time searching for past papers. Our random prompt generator serves up age-appropriate Narrative and Persuasive tasks instantly.

Zero Friction

No logins required for quick practice. Students receive a unique Session Code to resume work if interrupted, or they can export to PDF instantly.

Classroom Activity Ideas

1

The "Cold Write" Blitz

Use the prompt generator for an unplanned 15-minute writing sprint. Focus purely on generating ideas and typing speed, ignoring structure for now. This builds "keyboard confidence".

2

The 5-Minute Plan

Launch a session but only use the first 5 minutes. Have students use paper and pencil (or the digital planner) to plan their response. When the writing timer starts, stop the class and compare plans.

3

Proofreading Challenge

Have students write for 20 minutes, then swap computers. Give them 5 minutes to find (but not fix) spelling errors in their peer's work using the highlight feature (coming soon, use bolding for now).
