Session Submission Type: Symposium
Early writing skills are a critical component of young children’s literacy development and predictive of later literacy achievement. This symposium uses multiple data sources from diverse groups of children, teachers, and curricula to examine what young children’s writing knowledge looks like at kindergarten entry and how preschool instruction and curricula are preparing young children to succeed in the elementary school writing environments envisioned by the Common Core State Standards.
