RDG 416 Wk 4 – Best Practices for Teaching Writing

Select 1 age group from the following:

  • Ages 3–4 (preschool)

  • Ages 5–7 (kindergarten through first grade)

  • Ages 7–8 (second grade through third grade)

 

Consider how you would integrate reading and writing instruction in your classroom (including the content areas) if you were to teach the age group you selected (or one of the grade levels within that age group).

 

Research best practices for teaching writing to early childhood students. Pay particular attention to best practices for your selected age group or grade level.

 

Compose a response that includes the following information:

  • A brief rationale (150- to 175-word paragraph or bulleted list) in which you share specific reasons why reading and writing should or should not be taught together (including evidence from research to support your rationale) and how this knowledge will directly impact the way you teach

  • A 100- to 150-word description of how you will incorporate the writing process into your writing instruction

  • Examples of 1–2 instructional strategies that you could use in your classroom to develop each of the 6+1® Writing Traits

  • A 150- to 175-word paragraph or bulleted list outlining the writing frameworks or structures (e.g., workshop model structure, guided writing lessons, authentic writing) that you would like to use in your classroom and reasons to support why you chose those

  • A 150- to 175-word description of the specific ways that you will incorporate opportunities for students to write on a daily basis—including ways that they will write to demonstrate their learning (in various subject areas) and ways that they will write to develop writing skills

 

You may choose the format for your response. Your options include, but are not limited to, writing a narrative or creating an outline in Microsoft® Word, using or creating a graphic organizer, creating a brochure, or using a presentation medium such as Microsoft® PowerPoint® or Prezi®. Consider using media tools such as those found in the College of Education’s Technology Resources Library.

 

Include a reference page or section in APA format with all resources consulted.
