Writing for Pre-K and Kindergarten involves the use of routines and teaching points to move our youngest learners forward. Both our texts give detailed ideas that would be helpful in any classroom.
Note: In this post and in this context, we are not referring to the developmental stages of writing, which come later in the week, or strategies such as modeled writing.
1. Based on your course readings, in two to three paragraphs, explain the writing process for young learners. Both of your texts explicitly refer to the "writing process" so make sure you refer to this part of your texts.
2. How have you implemented this in your own classroom or how have you observed this in other classrooms? If you have not taught or observed this process, give an example of how you might implement this in your own teaching environment.
3. Are there aspects of the process that may be more challenging than others to implement?
Support your statements with evidence from the required studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.
