Reflections on Observation Task 4: Development of Early Writing


Skills

1. What developmental writing stages are the majority of the students in?
-

Using the small white boards and markers to practice writing the letters.
Use tracing cards.

2. Describe and explain two (2) suggested strategies that the teacher can use to help
the majority of the students within their developmental writing stage.
-

Teacher can ask students to format the letters when they are in the drawing area
using paints and colors because students enjoy drawing, also using different
colors to format the letters will help students to be able to memorize the letters.
When teacher put the students' colorful letters on the wall they will feel happy
and proud also it will help them recognize the letters.

Use clays to form the letters. Teacher can use this strategy to change the usual
routine and help students to recognize the letters in a new way instead of the
usual activities she do.
