Often this checklist includes several processes which can be observed and checked off. These, too, can be checked off as they appear in student conversation and written products. These checklists provide an overview of student progress and patterns of work. Nearly all teachers who conduct writing workshops have students maintain writing folders. Some teachers have students keep records of their work in these folders.
Students check the columns that apply.
Some teachers also have students keep lists in their folder of what they have learned. I have learned to punctuate dialogue. I have learned to check my work for misspelled words. I have learned to move paragraphs around to find the best arrangement. This list often acts as a reference guide for students.
