[quote=Anonymous]I teach writing to students with learning disabilities. We practice using different writing strategies, like sentence combining and sentence expansion. We outline paragraphs together using graphic organizers. We don’t just hand kids blank sheets of paper because they’re not there yet until they’ve internalized the strategies. We model a lot of grammatically accurate writing for the kids and ask them to copy it down. If they can come up with the content, organize it for them and give them practice that way. [/quote]
