Opis

Interactive writing is a dynamic, unscripted instructional method in which the teacher and students work together to construct a meaningful text while simultaneously discussing the details of the writing process. Together they plan, compose, and review text in a variety of genres. The "interactive" piece involves group collaboration in planning and composing the writing through guided conversation and a unique "sharing the pen" technique where students do the actual writing.
Interactive writing harnesses the natural interactions teachers have with their students as they compose a writing piece. It allows for real-time differentiation and tailored scaffolding. Interactive writing fits within any writing curriculum and can be adapted to your classroom's technology levels.
Interactive Writing Across Grades: A Small Practice with Big Results, Pre-K-5 is your how-to guide, unpacking this powerful method step by step--and grade by grade. The authors help you figure out where and how interactive writing fits within your literacy framework, regardless of the grade you teach. In these pages, you'll find the following:

• An overview of the interactive writing method and how it fits into your balanced literacy program
• Concrete ways to launch interactive writing in your classroom to support both process and craft instruction

Recenzje

Kate Roth and Joan Dabrowski's Interactive Writing Across Grades: A Small Practice with Big Results (9781625311153, $27.95) covers the basics of interactive writing experiences and their educational foundations, and will appeal to PreK-5 grade level teachers looking for a step-by-step application of the concepts to writing methods and teaching approaches. Chapters provide examples of real classroom writing from different grades as they illustrate different phrases of interactive writing teaching and show how to build skills, while classroom case history examples emphasize the experiences and process even more. The result is a solid guide for any teacher of these grade levels who would integrate an interactive writing program into the classroom.
