Author At Work Writing Checklist Activity

Description

How to teach Writing

Using this Author At Work Writing Checklist Activity, students use writing checklists when writing narratives, informative essays, and opinion essays. These checklists help ensure their written work is written clearly and contains the necessary components.

To become good writers, our students must include specific components depending on the type of writing they are developing. These writing checklists help your students to self-assess their work and produce clear and coherent writing in which the development and organization are appropriate to the task, purpose, and audience.

Give your students a writing topic and challenge them to use the corresponding writing checklist to produce their writing.
