Transcript
Writing is a complex process and I believe its important to have the different steps posted somewhere throughout the classroom. Students not only refer to this process, in language, but every other subject as well because its the same thing for every piece of writing. Getting the students accustomed to coming here and looking at this process helps them with their end product.

Activity Objective
The goal of The Writing Process: Step-by-Step Writing Procedures is to maximize the effectiveness of writing through posting about writing procedures. When students know what steps they are suppose to be going through, they can monitor and assess their own understanding and reflect on their writing.
Quick Tips
Additional Comments:
- Make sure to post your writing procedures somewhere that is accessible and easy to read for all students. - Think about creating these steps as a class and have students provide examples of what each part might look like. - Model the step-by-step writing process for students so they can see how to think about each section. - If students are still having trouble with including all of the parts in their writing, you can printout a mini checklist that students can review during and after their writing to help keep them on track.
