Teaching Adolescent Writers
Learning to
Write
Students need to “learn to
write” throughout their lives. When they are in elementary
school, children learn to encode words, spell, construct
sentences, figure out the mechanics of paragraphs, and
develop understanding of grammar. As they get older,
students refine and expand these skills. This is most
commonly accomplished in the English classroom as students
complete process writing pieces and teachers comment on
successive drafts of students’ writing.
