students' writing
By Carolyn

Clip to ScrapBook   
When I taught fifth grade, I hung their work up in the hallway and on the bulletin board. Beside the work I described on a prominent display for the passers-by who might read it the purpose of the writing. If work was student-edited, rather than teacher-edited, I would say that on the display. At my sons' school, the teachers have a rubber stamp that they can stamp on the work "Writing to Learn," and they informed us in advance that any work with that stamp on it was not edited by the teacher, but rather a writing piece completed by the child for the purpose of practicing writing fluency and development of story rather than grammar, spelling, etc.
