Writing

Hi, Dear Colleagues.

I am preparing for a seminar about "Writing"

-The process of writing; what is it? when does it start? ...
-How to lead/help pupils to achieve it?
-How to deal with it as far as the kids level is concerned?

The pupils are in secondary school (3 years = 15-18 years old) who learn English as a foreign language (for 7 years by the end of the secondary school)

Any ideas/suggestions or materials are welcome

thanks in advance

Hi Zora
Thanks very much to you and all the others for your concern.
For the moment anything is welcome. I haven �t received the details about what the content of the talk/seminar should be yet. I�ve just been told that it will be about writing.
So, I am trying to gather as much material as possible. I am sure when I start the work I won �t have enough time to consult the site and the internet.

The main idea is "How/What should we do to facilitate the task of writing?" because our pupils are more and more rejecting this task even in their mother tongue language especially when they are asked to imagine or think of some particular situation and write about them. It seem to be like chore.

Thanks to all.
