Teaching Beginning Writers

Par David L. Coker Jr. & Kristen D. Ritchey Dernière mise à jour 2024/05/27

Description

In this book, the authors share background information on how writing develops, and a research base for three key elements: handwriting, spelling and composition. The following chapters provide practical classroom advice for teaching all three, including several chapters dedicated to genre-specific writing instruction: book reviews (opinion), narratives and description, and how those progress from K-2. Included are helpful scripts, samples and rubrics. This is an excellent book for K-2 educators.

This resource supports the writing-related expectations of the 2023 Ontario Language Curriculum, including B2 (Language Foundations for Reading and Writing) with spelling, B3 (Language Conventions for Reading and Writing) with sentence structure, capitalization, etc., and expectations throughout Strand D (Composition: Expressing Ideas and Creating Texts).
