Similar with reading. Let’s just read interesting books and ask them questions about the story and the language involved. There’s no need to write answers to ‘prove’ we are doing comprehension.

Reading the new report on EYFS and this resonates so much.

It’s not that we ‘ban’ kids from writing at length. They can do that in free flow, but let’s give them the foundations so that when we want to teach them the process of writing it is enjoyable.
