Writing development and pedagogy is a high priority area,
particularly with standardised testing showing declines in writing
across time and through the years of schooling. However, to date
there are relatively few texts for teachers and teacher educators
which detail how best to enable the children to become confident,
autonomous and agentic writers of the future. Developing Writers
Across the Primary and Secondary Years provides cumulative insights
into how writing develops and how it can be taught across years of
compulsory schooling. This edited collection is a timely and
original contribution, addressing a significant literacy need for
teachers of writing across three key stages of writing development,
covering early (4-7 years old), primary (7-12 years old) and
secondary years (12-16 years old) in Anglophone countries. Each
section addresses two broader themes - becoming a writer with a
child-oriented focus and writing pedagogy with a teacher-oriented
focus. Together, the book brings to bear rigorous research and deep
professional understanding of the writing classroom. It offers a
novel approach conceiving of writing development as a dynamic and
multidimensional concept. Such an integrated interdisciplinary
understanding enables pedagogical thinking and development to
address more holistically the complex act of writing.
