Abstract | This paper presents practical classroom activities for teaching narrative/descriptive writing based on approaches to writing instruction that research indicates are powerfully effective, and discusses principles upon which effective and exciting instruction can be designed. The paper gives a brief overview of what research in the teaching of writing has to say about how best to teach writing, focusing on G. Hillock's meta-analysis of 72 of the best studies on teaching writing and on his ideas concerning mode of instruction, focus of instruction, and duration of instruction as they relate to the effectiveness of writing instruction. The paper then presents seven classroom-tested activities which illustrate key features of what research says works best, and which focus on descriptive/narrative writing. A 32-item bibliography and 2 appendixes (containing respectively, results of meta-analysis of the teaching of writing and student activity sheets) are attached. (SR) |
