The child will correct these mistakes as she revises, rewrites, and edits subsequent drafts. You can support the child by responding to the content of her drafts and asking questions to help her focus on how to express her ideas clearly. Keep your expectations realistic and tailored to the child's ability. Remember the importance of keeping the task at a level where the child can experience success and sustain motivation. The child might decide she is no longer interested in the topic she chose or she might decide to expand it.
Younger children are likely to make their stories longer.
More experienced writers might add to descriptions, move sections, or rewrite sentences or paragraphs. You can continue to offer support by answering questions, making suggestions, and responding to the child's ideas. In classroom writing workshops, children discuss their drafts and get encouragement and feedback from teachers and peers. You can assume this role by listening, asking questions, and making comments that guide the child to improve writing drafts. In classrooms, daily writing workshops end with a time for sharing.
