Modelled Writing is a strategy for teaching a range of forms, conventions and procedures of writing
It involves the writer‘thinking aloud’
as s/he writes for an audience
![Page 12: The Writing Genre - pdstsandbox.com Session 2.pdf · •To share practice and reflect on classroom based activity since workshop one •To explore the narrative genre of writing using](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070708/5eac3298481cc53b77512239/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Teacher has the pen. Teacher continues to ‘think aloud’, but consults the children for ideas.
