Writing is the best way to visualize or express our thoughts, observations-results-findings during a lab or class activities. Writing also provides opportunity to recall the prior knowledge and experience  to make connection with the present real-life situations. By writing  students do not only find a way make their thinking visible, but also find a way to communicate with the others. Moreover they recall and use the prior knowledge and experience and formulate their hypothesis, variables, record their observations -measurements- transfer them into a graph, the results of experimental findings. Writing provides opportunity to reflect all these in the form of a lab report, poster or ppt.

Writing to learn activities are very inmortant for children, especialy when they are learnibg to write, because it develops a lot of brain activities. Later, when they grow, they should do writing reports, poems, everything that involves writing process.

In my opinion we should use writing to learn our pupils, because it helps to learn, helps in  memoralization. Students transform in their minds new knowledge before they write, so it is helpful in learning process in science classes also.

I think writing and formulating things pupils have learned is great because they need to reflect what they have learned in the process. telling stories or poems with it sounds very appealing to me. also pupils revised learned stuff and can look at it at a later date to keep remembering or just to see their progress.

Writing to Learn activities are important in science as a means of assessing student understanding, but also giving them a chance to reflect on their own understanding of a topic. They can do so at their own time, without the pressure of having to present to the class.

I would use these activities in writing up reports, observations and their suggested explanations. I would get students to write up a summary of what we just covered, in their own words.

writing to learn in science is a very important skill to have. Report writing indicates their ability to create and carry out an experiment/activity, collect results, analyse them and make their reflections.
Writing to learn helps students to take and make notes, learn topics and be creative in areas such a poster making and poems and letters.
Up to now I would never have thought to get my science students to write poems or letters to show their understanding of a topic. Despite the results described by the teacher in the video above, I find the idea of introducing poetry and letter  writing in science very daunting but students can often surprise us!

# data[].attributes.body
Writing helps students to understand and to learn the topics because they should think and analyze the ideas. I could use writing to learn activities in my classroom, for exemple, poems and diary.

# data[].attributes.body
As I said previously, writing help the student to organize the ideas. So they have to have some writing activites every unit. It can be a experiment report, an essay of a topic related or simply explain a phenomena related with the topic.

# data[].attributes.body
They can use writing to formulate the planning of an experiment, to summarize their conclusions, and to establish the connections between concepts.

They can make summaries of topics and with that they can understand what they know and what they do not know

# data[].attributes.body
I use many variations of writing to learn activities. Students often have to write about themselves, about the projects they are involved in, about activities they do. It is obligatory to have some educational elements

Writing to learn activities lets and makes students reflect on what they want to communicate and how, focusing therefore on trying to be clear and understandable by people who did not go through the same process to elaborate a concept or work on a problem. At the end of a series of activities it could be nice to create a book, an e-book or an exposition for other students to share their gained knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing encourages students to think on the concept more deeply. At the end of the unit students can be asked to write in a given format to synthesize what they have already learned.

To reflect on their thinking, to learn how to write what it's in their mind, to be able to communicate. Also is great to structure what they've learned, to revise...
It is one of the most important things that we, as teachers, should teach them.

Since writing not only helps to organize one's thoughts but also provides an opportunity to revise the learned information, I would definitely use writing to learn activities in my classroom.

Especially, for experiments it can come in handy when the students take notes and later (when revising) can access to their notes to remember how the outcomes of the experiment were.

What's more, I would appeciate if the students would make notes after each session and somehow collect what they have remembered.
Group work at the end of a session may also be beneficial as it will allow them to have an insight in their collegues's minds.

writing increases the permanence of learning. allows you to see and correct errors later.
allows you to be aware of misconceptions.
We use writing in classrooms to take lecture notes, keep diary, hold test reports, to make progress in project stages, in word association, to develop critical and creative thinking skills.

For some student it can be an easier way of expression. But for some, the effort can take too much time and it will affect the learning time. Working on groups or pairs in with the student are proportionaly devided depending of their interest.

I think I should use Writing to learn activities because it can help students to learn better, develop critical thinking, classification of thoughts ... I've been thinking about introducing a "portfolio" in one my subject for a long time, where pupils would have to evaluate what they learned, what they understand and what they didn't, what was their learning outcomes, and what main idea they took ...

# data[].attributes.body
After seeing the two videos on the topic I was convinced about the effectiveness of the activity.
In last Monday's class, I gave a text to the students in the ninth grade class, with a dialogue, written by me, in which two students talk about the concepts worked during the lesson: the speed graphs as a function of time and the classification of rectilinear motions (the uniform rectilinear motion and the varied rectilinear motions).
I ask the students to write a text where they comment on the dialogue between the two kids. At the end of the work proposal, I present the evaluation parameters that I will use in the correction of the work done by the students.

Writing to learn activities are important to use in the classroom because students need to be able to communicate knowledge to others. This is an important life skill. Using writing activities in a science class helps students see that writing is a skill that is used in all content settings, not just in writing class or language arts. Writing to learn exercises also provide opportunities for students to reflect on their thinking and learning which often helps them clarify and refine thinking. When you try and put something into words you sometimes realize that you need more clarification before you can do that so you go and do further investigation, reading, study, or research. Writing to learn activities are also useful for the teacher in assessing student understanding. When students write, you can often uncover misconceptions or gaps in their knowledge from the things they say.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing is useful while memorizing and reflecting. It may also be a way of expressing individuals and enhance creativity. A tool for tracking misconceptions. I use: notes, creative notes and mindmaps and scetch notes, lab reports. I would use: diaries, poems (+hip-hop, rap approach), esseys, stories (science fiction).

According to the videos writing activities in science encourage the students who are more creative/ humanities/ literature oriented, as it is a type of activity they enjoy, it also helps them establish connections between concepts and revise their previous knowledge when asked to keep a science log or diary. In my opinion, it is crucial to bear in mind some students might be overwhelmed with this type of tasks if addressing to a public who is more knowledgeable than they are, that is why I think the idea of writing letters to explain something to younger students or friends, might be less challenging but allowing the students to perform those connections we mentioned above without feeling such a pressure.

As I pointed out previously, I think that this sort of activities improve the connection between concepts in order to get a better long-term learning. I agree with the teachers that have participated on the videos that these activities are very useful to check the perceptions of each unit and to correct misconceptions.
Recently, my students and me have been working on a letter that we are sending to the European Parlamient, so I am already using this sort of activities, but I have never thought to use poems within a science class. Definetely, I will use poems soon.

I would like to start with poems, after a lesson, I will make students to write a poem about what they learnt that day. I look forward to listen to their poems. It might be fine to let them read the poems in smaller groups and than tell whose poem was the best on their own. From each group there will be one best poem. In the final round students will read the best poems.

Writing gives voice to our inner thoughts and allows us to share them. As a form of communication, writing can transcend time and is a way to pass stories from generation to generation.
Writing focuses students on phonics, comprehension, developing their voice or perspective, and communicating this perspective to others.

Writing helps to clarify concepts and consolidate acquired knowledge. I think writing should be as open as possible as an additional motivation because they can use their creativity. When I use a video, I have previously distributed a text with blank spaces. I tell them that every 3 minutes they have an idea or concept to fill in the blank spaces. It serves as an example of text, to take into account what is said in the video and to capture concepts..

The role of the teacher is to help the student to discover and develop their ability to write through direct and indirect training exercises. Among the indirect training exercises, there are:
- games with geometric shapes that the child inserts into the appropriate holders, holding them with the three-finger grip button;
- soaking the toes in the warm water and making the effort "to keep your hand suspended, raising it upright";
- Feeling different contours and fitting shapes into appropriate frames.
Direct training exercises include drawing drawings and letterpress exercises.
The pupil is given various patterns for shaping figures, after which he is asked to color them without exceeding the contour. The purpose of this exercise is to make the little one accustomed to repetitive movements specific to line and sticks. The difference between the free drawing and the drawing of lines is that the preschooler who learns to write does not tire.

Writing can help to analyze, organize, settle and fix knowledge.

These videos have offered me some ideas that I consider useful. One of them is to propose that they write rap lyrics. It can be attractive to many students, especially if they are not used to writing other types of texts. Another one is to propose that they write texts aimed at students who have a level of knowledge inferior to their own.
