1st stage of the writing process
![Page 6: READ 7140 Dr. Tonja Root Summer 2008 2 nd Grade Interdisciplinary Writing Unit.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070401/56649f1c5503460f94c33216/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Whole Group Instruction: Used for the introduction of the writing assignment,
explanation of the writing process and form of writing, read-aloud, and practice activity. All students need to receive the same basic information since this is the beginning of a persuasive unit project. Utilizing whole group instruction will enable all students to receive the same information and will enable students to have more time to work, thus increasing time on task.
Independent Work: During the assessment activity (graphic organizer).
Individual work will allow the teacher to assess each student and ensure that each student receives the individual attention and focus needed to complete their assignment. Individual work also allows students to work in their zone of proximal development and provides an opportunity for the teacher to scaffold individual instruction.
