5 Steps to Teach Writing Skills

The document outlines the 5 steps of the writing process: prewriting, drafting, revising, proofreading, and publishing. Prewriting involves thinking about the topic, audience, and purpose. Drafting is the initial writing where students get their ideas on paper in paragraphs or chapters. Revising makes the writing better using a TAG method where students comment on what they like, ask questions, and give suggestions. Proofreading corrects errors in grammar, mechanics, and punctuation. Publishing shares the final story with others through reading, typing, illustrations, or other means.

Prewriting

This step is where students think about their writing.


What is the topic? Who is the audience?

Are we persuading, informing or entertaining our reader.

Drafting

Students will begin to write in the drafting process. This is their first attempt at getting their ideas for their writing onto paper.
Using their own words Making paragraphs or chapters, depending on how they want their writing presented.

Revising

Here we begin to make our story better than before. TAG is a great concept to get students actively involved in the revising process.
T: tell what you like A: ask a question G: give a suggestion

TAG encourages higher thinking

Proof Reading

Make corrections to our revisions. Pay close attention to grammar usage and mechanics as well as overuse of certain words. Be sure sentences are properly punctuated.

Publishing

Students can publish their stories in a variety of ways:


Sharing it with classmates, reading aloud Typing their story up and binding it Drawing illustrations for their story and putting corresponding piece of story under picture
