4 Summary

This unit has focused on how you can help students to make progress in English writing, and how you can evaluate their attempts to write in English. Students do not need to be fluent in English grammar or know how to spell English perfectly to start writing in English. With frequent opportunities for drafting and writing, students will practise English spellings and sentence structures.
