Extractions: Lessons on ReadWriteThink can be sorted by literacy engagements so that teachers can highlight specific language functions in the classroom. Following M. A. K. Halliday's model, lessons are designed to engage students in authentic and meaningful language learning (1982). Literacy engagements simultaneously involve learning language (as students listen to it and use it with others in their everyday lives), learning about language (as students try to figure out how it works, engage with their teachers in focused instruction on how it works or in critiquing its impact), and learning through language (as students use it to learn about or do something).

http://www.varsity.cam.ac.uk/802567B80049EF7D/Pages/1032000_BATSNewWriting.html

Extractions: Tempting fate with its title, James Walker's Near Miss dealt with missed opportunities and the futility of existence. Taking its lead from Absurdist Theatre, intellectual posturing, ruminations on the transience of time and obscure word play were the order of the day. Self-consciously sporting its intellectual credentials on its sleeve, the play was pretentious and sadly unengaging, despite assured production and excellent performances from Ben Silverstone and the writer himself. Having already established himself as a writer - most recently with Gemini - Walker has attracted the praise of Channel 4, who said of one of his earlier successes: "This should be on at the West End". Ultimately "Near Miss" had more chance of being found up its own West End than on it.

Parent S Guide / Writing Skills Development
Provide writing materials. Have word and picture cards on hand. Encourage letter writing and hang up their paper. Use play dough to make letters.
http://www.meddybemps.com/7.22.html

Extractions: This page recommends both online and offline activities for you to do with your child to stimulate writing skills development. In order for any child to write meaningfully, he or she must first build up their fine motor skills. Art projects, working with play dough, measuring and pouring sand and water, and practicing writing are excellent ways to improve fine motor skills. The skills along the path to writing are: Scribbling with crayons. Making circles and other basic shapes. Again, put plenty of paper and writing materials around the house. Point out shapes in the house and try to draw them together (be encouraging). Have stencils available for your child to trace. Discuss your child's attempts with him/her in a positive way.

http://www.sarabandebooks.org/sarabande/Authors/Kristin Herbert/998340953337/rea

Extractions: Copy the masters. In his essay "The Music of Prose," William Gass writes: "The producers of prose do not play scales or improve their skills by repeating passages of De Quincey or Sir Thomas Browne, although that might be a good idea." Joan Didion typed out Hemingway's stories to see how they worked; Somerset Maugham copied out a page of Jonathan Swift each day; Eudora Welty transcribed pages from the King James Bible. Pull out a book you admire and copy out a scene that strikes you as powerful. Try writing a scene of description or your own in the same manner. Try writing it in the styles of several different authors. Write it in the style of a writer you despise. Listen to music. Find a piece of music that evokes the mood of a scene you wish to write, or are trying to write. Is it rock? Folk? Jazz? Rap? See what it inspires in you. If you tend to write short, declarative sentences, see how Bach's Cello Suites affect your prose. If you write long, discursive pieces, listen to punk rock for fifteen minutes, then try to write.

Extractions: Writing in K-6 Reading and writing are closely connected. When children learn to read and write, they learn how literary and factual texts are written for different purposes and different audiences. In writing, children learn about the structure and grammar of written language as well as learning about handwriting and spelling. Handwriting Writing recognise that words are separated by spaces write their first name and surname attempt to write letters and words with teacher assistance use books, words and letters as models for their writing write one or more sentences attempt to use punctuation write lists, messages, descriptions, stories, greeting cards, invitations and thank you letters, stories, poems, diaries
WORD PLAY
word play. Understanding And writing Lyrics Part 2 Modes. Published in SOS January 2001 Printer friendly version Printer friendly version.
http://www.sospubs.co.uk/sos/jan01/articles/lyric.asp

Extractions: Printer friendly version Technique : Miscellaneous Whenever we hear or read song lyrics, we are hearing the voice of a person, whether that voice be the songwriter's own, exploring his or her own emotions and feelings, or someone else's. The second part of Sam Inglis ' series explains how you can write for different voices to put across different messages. In last month's outline of a possible approach to lyric writing, I mentioned that at some stage you will be faced with the need to make certain general decisions about the words to each song. These decisions can be, and often are, made unknowingly or unconsciously, but they are still an essential part of the songwriting process. It's perfectly possible to write a brilliant pop lyric without ever being aware that you're making these decisions, but that doesn't mean they're any less important, nor that there's nothing to gain by making the effort to understand them. Poetry theory describes a large number of modes and variations upon them, but for our purposes three will be adequate for the vast majority of all pop lyrics: the lyric mode, the dramatic mode, and the narrative mode. A poem or song lyric is in the lyric mode if its primary purpose is to express the emotions of the narrator, and to bring about a particular emotional response in the listener. Poems in lyric mode are often designed to be sung, so it is no accident that the word 'lyric' in pop music is derived directly from this mode. As we shall see, however, not all pop lyrics are written in the lyric mode and, of the other modes which are relevant to songwriting, by far the most important are the dramatic mode and the narrative mode. A verse belongs to the dramatic mode if it forms a speech or address by the narrator to someone or something in particular, while a narrative verse is one that tells a story.
