My inquiry question...
Pre-inquiry
What I found...
Through my search for strategies I found a YouTube
clip about the Lucy Calkin Writing Approach. This
led me to read further...
The basis of her approach states that children should
be able to define their own individual writing style to
compose 'stories that matter'. Their writing is
meaningful to them and is a form of self-expression.
What I did...
continued...
I asked her to start drawing a picture of anything
that interested her.
Halfway through I stopped her and asked her to
write 5 words about her picture.
Then she finished the picture and wrote another 5
words.
She used these words to write some sentences
about her picture.
Her picture...
Her writing...
Thankyou!
