TAILIEUCHUNG - Improving Fourth Grade Students’ Writing Skills With 6+1 Traits of Writing and Writer’s Workshop

This study explores the implementation of two contemporary approaches to teaching writing, Writer’s Workshop and 6+1 Traits of Writing. The purpose of the study was to help fourth grade students become proficient writers both in their descriptive writing content and in their written mechanics. The study also compares the transfer of written skills using these approaches versus the commonly taught Daily Oral Language process and grammatical textbook activities. Throughout the study, students were actively involved in many hands-on writing activities. The lessons encouraged students to engage in discussions about their writing, as opposed to. | Improving Fourth Grade Students Writing Skills With 6 1 Traits of Writing and Writer s Workshop Jessica L.
