Writing, as an indispensable language output skill for high school students, plays an important role in English teaching. How to improve the effect of high school English writing teaching and enhance students’ writing ability is the focus of current English teaching research. Multimodal is an innovative way of English teaching under the background of information technology, which is of great importance in promoting intelligent and three-dimensional English teaching. Given the current problems in high school English writing teaching, this paper explores the specific strategies of Senior English writing teaching based on multimodal teaching mode, including creating a multimodal teaching environment, integrating multimodal teaching resources, increasing multimodal interactions, restructuring multimodal information, and constructing a multimodal evaluation system, which aims to make up for the deficiencies of the traditional writing teaching, to stimulate the students’ interest in English writing, and to improve the students’ ability to English writing. Additionally, the contribution of the study lies in providing a new research perspective for English writing teaching, enriching the way of English writing teaching, and providing some inspiration for front-line teachers in multimodal writing teaching.
