Playful Writing in the Pre-K-2 Classroom - 31100
Writing is much more than putting letters on a page. It is a complex process where young writers must draw on multiple skills including transcription, storytelling, and background knowledge, among many others. Leveraging play through oral language and multimodal expressions elevates the writing process and improves children's attitudes toward writing and motivation to practice. In addition, providing students the choice of composing using different modalities makes writing instruction increasingly effective for students from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. In Playful Writing, we will explore how to use play, along with various resources and materials, and we will look at different modes of expression, such as speaking, drawing, building, or performing, to develop and improve children's writing ability in a playful, non-threatening context.
