Its mid-year here in NZ, so its not 'back to School' for us but the best time is really the enthusiasm at the start, every year. #100wcCHAT

My best story is that I was on holiday in Cornwall 250 miles away & someone saw me at a theme park but didn't come to say hello! #100wcCHAT

Not bad Ian, we have a term break in two weeks where I have a bit of work to do at a conference, and a bit of work before then #100wcCHAT

Mine was a scary one. I was a newly appointed deputy done one term but the HT didn't come back from his holiday so I was HT! #100wcCHAT

100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:15 PM EDT

Question 1 - Why teach writing? #100wcCHAT
msokeeffesclass Sep 20 @ 4:17 PM EDT

Important for children to be able to express themselves #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:18 PM EDT

A1: I think writing, like any skill needs to be taught to give children the tools with which to create amazing writing #100wcCHAT
SPH23 Sep 20 @ 4:18 PM EDT

Whether it's handwritten or word processed, writing is a key communication tool behind speaking/listening and reading #100wcChat
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
PrimaryIdeas Sep 20 @ 4:18 PM EDT

#100wcCHAT A1 ‘Cos whether we’re writing on paper, wall, online or for ourselves, we’ll always need to write to communicate… @100word
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:19 PM EDT

So true. It is all so intrinsically linked for a lifetime of sharing and communicating #100wcCHAT
In reply to @SPH23, @100wcCHAT1
boyceoc Sep 20 @ 4:19 PM EDT

#100wcCHAT We teach writing to give children the skills needed to express themselves. It's another form of communication.
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:21 PM EDT

A1: At the same time, children should then be given the chance to creatively practice these skills regularly without boundaries #100wcCHAT
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:21 PM EDT

although 100WC is on devices, being able 2 write by hand is a wonderful skill as it gives opportunity for presentation skills too #100wcCHAT
msokeeffesclass Sep 20 @ 4:21 PM EDT

A1 Definitely important to give students the tools to enable them to communicate #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:21 PM EDT

That feels like a dig at SPaG Ian! #100wcCHAT
In reply to @irockey
SPH23 Sep 20 @ 4:22 PM EDT

Teachers must ensure that learners have the skills to write effectively! #100wcChat
In reply to @boyceoc, @100wcCHAT1
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:22 PM EDT

Yes it does. I usually begin a session with a rough draft on paper to be edited so that essential skills are practiced. #100wcCHAT
In reply to @TheHeadsOffice
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:23 PM EDT

It does but it wasn't necessarily. Just that children's creativity shouldn't be held back & that they can use the classroom tools #100wcCHAT
In reply to @TheHeadsOffice
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:24 PM EDT

Where would you put the importance of writing compared with reading & maths? #100wcCHAT
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:27 PM EDT

Question 2 on it's way. Would you fight to continue teaching writing? #100wcCHAT
boyceoc Sep 20 @ 4:28 PM EDT

In the older classes in particular reading and writing are intrinsically linked - one enhancing the other. #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:28 PM EDT

Everything has its place and importance. It's up to us to ensure that children are equipped suitably to maximise their potential #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
100word Sep 20 @ 4:30 PM EDT

Question 2 This one is about support. What would support you in teaching writing? What tips can you share? #100wcCHAT
100word Sep 20 @ 4:30 PM EDT

Lovely to hear! Don't forget the tag!! #100wcCHAT

ThisIsLiamM Sep 20 @ 4:31 PM EDT

#100wcCHAT Parent’s knowledge and understanding of writing being better would hugely help many children. @100wcCHAT1
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:31 PM EDT

A2: I think it's having the opportunity to approach writing in as many engaging and exciting ways as possible. #100wcCHAT
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:32 PM EDT

A 2. I think teachers find it hard to think of the subject to get Ss to write about. #100wcCHAT
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:33 PM EDT

A2: I've found that children of all ages love picture prompts as it is a visual subject that children can respond to easily #100wcCHAT
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:33 PM EDT

Do parents recognise what good writing is Liam? #100wcCHAT
In reply to @ThisIsLiamM
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:33 PM EDT

I agree, particularly subjects that engage all writers #100wcCHAT
In reply to @TheHeadsOffice
boyceoc Sep 20 @ 4:33 PM EDT

We always handwrite them first as well. I agree it's a lovely quiet time. Although some rush to be first on the gadgets typing! #100wcCHAT
In reply to @msokeeffesclass, @TheHeadsOffice, @100word
ThisIsLiamM Sep 20 @ 4:33 PM EDT

They need to know the subject they write about so they can write freely… #100wcCHAT

irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:34 PM EDT

Great point. This year I am trying hard to engage more parents in commenting and identifying quality writing on our blogs #100wcCHAT
In reply to @ThisIsLiamM, @100wcCHAT1
ThisIsLiamM Sep 20 @ 4:35 PM EDT

YES! Writing for fun, ‘cos it’s enjoyable… #100wcCHAT
In reply to @SPH23, @100wcCHAT1
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:35 PM EDT

When writing in history, do they see that as writing or history? #100wcCHAT
In reply to @ThisIsLiamM, @TheHeadsOffice
SPH23 Sep 20 @ 4:35 PM EDT

And short films! #100wcCHAT
In reply to @irockey
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:36 PM EDT

I think there is. I appreciate the need to teach SPAG but I'm finding it is working so far teaching #100wc using it too #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:36 PM EDT
#100wcCHAT is the tag @SPH23 I don't want everyone to miss your comments!

irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:37 PM EDT

Yes, short films are excellent. Also audio recordings to promote creative thought #100wcCHAT
In reply to @SPH23
boyceoc Sep 20 @ 4:37 PM EDT

Writing is the 100 Word Challenge! History is history. #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1, @ThisIsLiamM, @TheHeadsOffice
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:37 PM EDT

I love the idea that children are writing for a worldwide audience and how it excites them #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1, @SPH23
ThisIsLiamM Sep 20 @ 4:38 PM EDT

History usually, but the more we do it, the more they will see it as writing. Look here: https://t.co/3X5ff2YOL5 #100wcCHAT @100word
In reply to @100wcCHAT1, @TheHeadsOffice, @100word
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:38 PM EDT

Love that Mary!! Simples! Is it important that they know it is all writing? #100wcCHAT
In reply to @boyceoc, @ThisIsLiamM, @TheHeadsOffice
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:39 PM EDT

I think it is important that children enjoy their writing whatever the subject. A love of writing like a love of reading #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1, @boyceoc, @ThisIsLiamM, @TheHeadsOffice
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:40 PM EDT

If writing within subjects was highlighted as the subject's writing, would reluctant writers who like say history engage more?#100wcCHAT
boyceoc Sep 20 @ 4:42 PM EDT

Unsure if it matters. In all writing we stress importance of SPaG - in 100WC we put more emphasis on creativity / ideas. #100wcCHAT
In reply to @100wcCHAT1, @ThisIsLiamM, @TheHeadsOffice
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:43 PM EDT

That's an interesting question. I think if children have a thirst for learning & knowledge they will enjoy all forms of writing #100wcCHAT
In reply to @TheHeadsOffice
100wcCHAT1 Sep 20 @ 4:43 PM EDT

Any tips for supporting writing , apart from 100WC of course! Short films / audio anything else? #100wcCHAT
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:43 PM EDT

I've also been asking for a particular element of SPaG each week in my #100wc teaching this year. It's working too #100wcCHAT
In reply to @boyceoc, @100wcCHAT1, @ThisIsLiamM, @TheHeadsOffice
SPH23 Sep 20 @ 4:44 PM EDT

Using Apps like Class Dojo and Seesaw, enable students to share their in/out of school. #100wcCHAT
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:44 PM EDT

That is the idea of 100WC to take away restrictions #100wcCHAT
In reply to @boyceoc, @100wcCHAT1, @ThisIsLiamM
irockey - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:45 PM EDT

Music instrumental tracks of varying genres for the children to listen and respond to. #100wcCHAT

Question 3 on it's way in a minute! #100wcCHAT
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:46 PM EDT

Is it the sharing that makes the difference Steven? #100wcCHAT
In reply to @SPH23
TheHeadsOffice - Moderator Sep 20 @ 4:47 PM EDT

Question 3. How did you approach this week's prompt? What grammar did you ask for? #100wcCHAT
boyceoc Sep 20 @ 4:47 PM EDT

Our 100WC often incorporates history and geography.Our stories are often set in the World War or include tsunamis or earthquakes! #100wcCHAT
