The purpose of this discourse-analytical study is to investigate teachers’ beliefs about writ-ing and writing instruction and how their beliefs and writing instruction can be understood in relation to the Lgr11 syllabus in Swedish. The study included five teachers who teach in grade 6 of primary school, where I applied Roz Ivanič’s theories of written discourses, based partly on interviews with teachers and classroom observations of teaching, partly on the Swedish curriculum for grades 4–6. The result shows that teachers move within creativi-ty, process, genre and social practice discourse, while the skills of discourse and the socio-political discourse lack matching. The result also shows that there are relatively large convergences between teachers and teaching statements. The core content of the curriculum related to writing can be linked to all written discourses, while the overall objectives relat-ing to writing lack a match in two written discourses of creativity and process discourse.
