In a blog posting briefly describe why it is the responsibility of all teachers to provided writing instruction for their students.Name and describe four research-based strategies to support writing instruction for students.
I think that it is the responsibility for all teachers to provide writing instruction for their students because it is something that everyone needs to know and something that everyone needs to be proficient at. Everyone needs to know how to write and get their points across. By providing writing instruction for all students, it boosts them in their future achievements. As a teacher no matter what content area or grade level all children can write about something that the class is doing or talking about, what they don't know about a topic or what they do know about a topic, and the students could also write about something they find interesting. Just like reading students need to be interested. Students are not going to want to write about some thing that does not interest them, make it fun for them and they will enjoy what they are dong and continue building on the skills that were just given. I think that reading and knowing how to pronounce a word is just as important as writing and writing correctly.
Summarizing and note taking
Not only will the students be learning about the topic being discussed in class, but students will be working on their writing. Even thought the grammar might not be perfect students will be getting the major concepts of writing just by practicing. Students will also be able to learn other parts of writing such as summarizing.
Identifying Similarities and Differences

Identifying Similarities and Differences
Students can write about the differences and similarites on the topic being discussed in class. This will help with future assignments that students might have because they will know more words to use in place of words that are used often.
Students can use writing in different ways including making graphs, charts, posters, etc..Stimulates different kinds of learners.
Students could set goals and objectives by writing them down in a journal and marking each as their accomplish them.Students should know that they should be goals that can be accomplished and goals that are within reach of getting.
Strong understanding of why it is important to teach writing and all content areas!
