What is Writing? |
Writing is where students learn to write best when and write frequently, for extended periods of time, on topics selected and of their own choosing.
To develop skills as a writer, students need three things: ownership of their own writing, guidance from an experienced writer, and support from a community of fellow learners. The writing framework meets these needs and streamlines instruction in order to meet the most important objective: giving kids time to write. This supports children in taking their writing seriously and viewing themselves as writers. |
