To see samples of writing stages, visit scholastic.com/schoolreadiness. 1 Scribbling: Children may make a random assortment
5 Consonants Represent Words: Children begin to leave spaces between their words and may often mix upper- and lowercase letters in writing. Usually, they write sentences that express ideas. 6 Initial, Middle, and Final Sounds: Writing is readable. Children may spell some sight words, family names, and environmental print correctly, but other words are spelled the way they sound. 7 Transitional Phases: Writing is readable and approaches conventional spelling as it is interspersed with words that are in standard form and letter patterns. 8 Standard Spelling: Children can spell most words correctly and are developing an understanding of root words, compound words, and contractions. This understanding helps them spell similar words.
of marks on paper. Sometimes marks are large and circular. Although marks do not resemble print, they are significant as young writers show their ideas. 2 Letter-like Symbols: Sometimes these symbols
are interspersed with numbers. The children can tell about their own drawings or writing. In this stage, spacing is rarely present.
3 Strings of Letters: Children write some legible letters that tell us they know more about writing in this phase. There is more awareness of a sound- to-symbol relationship. Children mostly write in capital letters and have not yet begun spacing. 4 Beginning Sounds Emerge: There will be differences
between a letter and a word, but children may not use spacing between words in this stage. Messages make sense and match pictures.
