Learning Plan

Common Core Writing Standard

The purpose of writing instruction is to help strengthen students’ writing skills so they become successful independent writers. A careful balance between assisted writing and unassisted writing must be established to provide opportunities for students to observe good writing and also practice writing on their own. The following writing guidelines clarify the two kinds of writing experiences.

Grades 2-5 Writing Program

Modeled Writing

(Assisted Writing) Prompt Writing

(Unassisted Writing)

Purpose: Provide students a strong model for writing Provide students an opportunity to practice independent

writing

Feedback: Conferencing at various stages (brainstorm, organize, write)

and provide feedback on writing Conferencing using the WFBB Analytical Writing Rubric

Use: Celebrate and display best writing in the classroom Writing placed in a writing folder/file to reflect and show

growth over time for the teacher and student

Teacher/student selects 1 piece of writing and takes it

through the writing process to publish (trimester) Teacher/student uses information from WFBB analytical rubric to reflect, guide instruction, and plan mini-lessons
