Prior to writing their final draft, students should return to the assessment schedule and use this to decide what changes or additions are needed for the final draft. Students then begin writing the final draft. For writing to be published on Writers' Window , it will need to be word processed at this stage. Students then form peer editing groups to proofread each other's work for technical accuracy. At this point they will need access to dictionaries, spell checkers, language guides .
Students do a final proof-read of their own writing.
Students then write their final copy. Peer groups select those pieces they feel should be published on Writers' Window and submit to their teacher for final quality check prior to publication. All students' writing should be published as a class booklet with copies available for purchase by students and copies placed in the library, reading room and other classrooms. Students who are serious about writing and want more writing advice, links to sites, organisations and magazines should visit John Hewitt's Writers' Resource Centre . Two stories were published in Weka Web and the rest in a class magazine which individuals could purchase and with copies placed in the Reading Room, library and other English classrooms.
