I feel that students feel the same way about reading as well. All students want to do is read. From the beginning of their education, they are pointing to words and trying to sound out words.]]> 2018-11-02 00:03:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628899 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628933 Quote #2 spoke to me because I always feel somewhat guilty about taking so much time with writing. Sometimes it feels like my writing units drag on and on, but this quote assured me that successful writing instruction takes TIME. ]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628933 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628934 I liked quote one because I believe that students do have a desire to express themselves in written format, but providing them with creative ways will allow for students to feel less intimidated by a writing assignment.]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628934 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628940 2018-11-02 00:04:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628940 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628953 I have seen quote one in practice in my experience babysitting. One of the boys I watch was constantly writing and drawing everywhere and once he went to school he stepped back. I’m not sure if it is because of the amount he needed to write once in school or a raised affective filter from school. In my philosophy I hope to shape students passions and use them as strengths when working towards the curriculum. ]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628953 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628970 I like quote number three because students need to form a foundation of writing skills in order to work on their writing across cirriculum. After students begin to write more, teachers can see what the students need to work on while growing their writing and academic skills. It’s almost like putting together a puzzle because once students begin to write, they start to grow their learning as a whole. ]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628970 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628982 Quote 1 seems like the better quote, because I feel like that's how kids express themselves.]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299628982 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629005 2018-11-02 00:04:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629005 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629099 Students, at all ages, are capable of so much. They desire the need to learn. As a preschool teacher assistant I see children from as young as 18 months wanting to write, whether it is drawing a picture or writing their name. When students enter kindergarten and have the opportunity to write they are excited. Writing through pictures or words enables children to present their knowledge, feel important, and most importantly make their mark!]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629099 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629101 I think children want to write ecause they want to share their ideas and opinions. In my class the students beg for free writing time, when they have time to share stories, ideas, or issues in their writing notebook. During these types of activities the students can freely express themselves.]]> 2018-11-02 00:04:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629101 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629138 I recently read Stephen King's memoir, "On Writing." He suggests that if someone wants to become a successful writer (at any level), they must read and write constantly. Becoming a good writer takes time, and as such, teaching writing takes time. Once skills are taught, students need time to use the skills before they are ready to accept more. ]]> 2018-11-02 00:05:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629138 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629203 I really like quote #1. I can relate that to my childhood years when anytime I had a writing tool in my hand, I would always mark up any place that came to my sight. Now as an educator, I see that this give children an opportunity to express and expand their ideas.  ]]> 2018-11-02 00:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629203 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629204 I like quote number 3 because I think it is important they bring in all disciplines]]> 2018-11-02 00:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629204 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629250 2018-11-02 00:05:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629250 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629260 I agree that effective teaching of writing skills takes time. My writing skills improved drastically my senior year of college when I had a professor take the time to try multiple strategies and assessments of my work. If it took myself almost 20 years of education to achieve that, I could only imagine an ELL's struggles.]]> 2018-11-02 00:05:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629260 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629262 Quote 2- I think it is important for students to practice, learn and continue to grow within their writing ]]> 2018-11-02 00:05:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629262 vross3 https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629278 I believe the quote #2 is very true because there's always room to build and improve on writing.  After all Rome wasn't built in a day. By giving students time to work, share, and build on their writing, we're enabling them to become effective writers over time.  ]]> 2018-11-02 00:05:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mdove3/writingquote/wish/299629278
