Meeting the Needs of PreK-2 Writers in the Era of PA Core Writing Standards
This session is designed around the unique needs of PreK-2 writers. Participants will explore the continuum of development for young writers, paying close attention to what constitutes an emergent, early, and fluent writer. Participants will examine their own students' writing to determine where their students are on the writing continuum and how to support their young writers towards proficiency of the PA Core Standards for Writing. Participants will learn how to use writing demonstrations, small group writing, and independent writing to create a comprehensive and differentiated approach to teaching writing. The following essential questions will guide this session: How do I determine where my writer's are on the writing continuum? How do I differentiate my writing instruction while moving all writers towards proficiency of the PA Core Standards? How do I utilize teacher demonstrations, small groups, and independent writing to create a comprehensive and differentiated approach to writing instruction? Please bring examples of your own student's writing (produced independently) along with the PA Core Standards for Writing from your grade level.
