Supporting Young Children’s Composing Practices through Pre- and Post-Writing Conversations

Ridley, Jackie ; Rohloff, Rebecca ; Zhang, Xiao ; Quinn, Margaret

Abstract

In this teaching tip, we propose purposeful pre- and post-writing conferences as a teacher practice to support young children’s early writing practices. We share how teachers can facilitate children’s idea development through conversational moves during writing conferences and provide a model for what this could look like using a task-based composing prompt.
