- 1Barry Kroll - 1981Identified 4 stages of children's written development:
1) Preparation (up to age 6) - Basic motor skills & principles of spelling are acquired.
2) Consolidation (age 7/8) – Writing is similar to spoken language. This includes a more casual register, unfinished sentences, and clauses joined by conjunction ‘and’.
3) Differentiation (age 9/10) – Awareness of writing as separate from speech. Stronger understanding of writing for different audiences and purposes is evident.
4) Integration (mid-teens) – Personal voice becomes apparent in writing and appropriate linguistic choices are consistently made. - 2Joan RotheryCategories for evaluating children's writing:
Observation - Child makes an observation followed by an evaluative comment.
Recount - Typically a chronological sequence of events. Written subjectively (1st person), follows structure: orientation, event, reorientation
Report - Factual and objective review of event/things
Narrative - Story genre with a set pattern: orientation, complication, resolution (+ sometimes coda - identifies point of story). - 3Britton3 modes of children's writing:
1) Expressive - Develops first as it resembles speech. Uses 1st person and content is based on personal preferences.
2) Poetic - Requires skills for crafting and shaping language. It is encouraged due to its creativity. Phonological features are common eg. rhythm, rhyme, alliteration, as well as descriptive devices eg. similes, adjectives.
3) Transnational - Develops last (secondary school age) once children have dissociated speech from writing. It is the style of academic essays as it is impersonal in style and tone. Formal sentence structures are used to signpost sections and ideas.
Structure tends to be chronological.
