The Process Approach
The Process Approach focuses the student more on the process that the student will go through. The stages the student will go is prewriting, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing.
Prewriting
Prewriting is the first stage in the writing process. Various prewriting activities can be utilize to help the student generate ideas for the topic he/she are going to write about. For example, thinking it over, brainstorming/listing, asking question, graphic organizers, surfing the internet, accessing electronic libraries, the four square writing method, and the storyboard.
Drafting
The second stage is drafting. Student’s use the ideas obtain during the prewriting stage, start writing the paper, and create a rough draft. The students will share what they wrote with the teacher. The teacher can also share what they wrote with peers. This will allow the student to get valuable feedback for corrections that can be made on the student’s paper.
Revising
The third stage is Revising. Students will make changes and/or corrections based on feedback from teacher and/or peers. Students may take out information, add information, add voice: so that the composition is talking right to the reader, move around words and sentences in order to make the composition flow and make sense.
Editing
The fourth stage is Editing. Editing is where the writer proofreads the composition for errors in spelling, grammar usage, and mechanics. All errors are correct to prepare for publish/final draft.
Publishing
This is the fifth and final step in the Approach Process. The students rewrite in their neatest handwriting or type the information out on the computer and print it out.
