using laptops to promote creative writing

The technology focus will be to learn how to use the laptops to improve creative writing with grade fours. Writing is one of our school goals. Writing is also a skill that is difficult or unappealing for many of us.

Phases of inquiry:
• Identification of problem area: student writing is lacking creativity (main ideas, supporting details, conventions)
• Collection and organization of data: journal writing, using writing prompts, reflective writing, writing about their choice, school wide write
