Work in Progress Writing Worksheet

The Work in Progress Writing Worksheet helps young students improve their writing abilities. Students draft stories, essays, or reports on the writing paper. Then a peer reviews the writing and provides constructive feedback using the helpful prompts. Comments might address ideas, details, word choice, organization, or conventions. Writers can use this information to revise and edit their work before turning in a final piece. Educators may utilize this teaching resource in many ways. For independent writing, students complete the entire process on their own. However, teachers can also facilitate by reviewing sheet usage, pairing writers, monitoring conferences, assessing progress, etc. This practical tool allows children to give and receive meaningful feedback so that everyone’s skills grow.
