Writing Process Vocabulary

写作过程词汇

Description

Know and use the vocabulary of the writing process — compose, plan, draft, revise, edit, proofread, genre, audience, purpose, narrative, recount, instruction, paragraph, sequence, and detail — and understand that these words describe distinct steps and decisions that all writers make, not just tasks to tick off

Mastery Evidence
  • Use 'compose', 'revise', and 'edit' correctly when describing the stages of writing
  • Explain who the 'audience' is for a piece of writing and how that changes what they write
  • Describe the purpose of a piece of writing (to persuade, inform, entertain, or instruct) and match their language to it
Assessment Prompt

If you asked your child to explain what they're doing when they write a story at school, could they walk you through each step using words like 'plan', 'draft', and 'revise' — showing they understand it's a process, not just one sitting?
