74. Breaking It Down: The Writing Domain


Listen Later

Do you find the following statistics alarming? A recent study by the National Assessment of Educational Progress found that only 27% of U.S. eighth-graders were proficient in writing. In the same year, a survey by the National Center for Education Statistics found that only 24% of high school seniors were proficient in writing.

Writing can be difficult and often frustrating, even in a person's native language. Writing is often one of the biggest challenges for our ELL students.


In our final episode in this mini series breaking down the 4 domains of language, Beth shares thoughtful insight into how our students learn writing and valuable, practical strategies to use in your classroom today.
