Ask a child why they write and you might receive a common response:\u00a0the teacher told me to<\/a>. Kids often\u00a0lack confidence as writers<\/a>\u00a0and find it\u00a0emotionally draining<\/a>. The problem might be the classroom and its detachment from what writers do in the real world.<\/p>\n

In some classrooms, students learn writing techniques and then apply them to a writing assignment. In others, students are given freedom over their writing with little teacher intervention.<\/p>\n

Both approaches work to develop the writing craft, for similar reasons they work for authors. Authors\u00a0learn discrete techniques<\/a>\u00a0from mentors to improve their skills and also\u00a0write freely<\/a>\u00a0to experiment with style.<\/p>\n

Teachers have a lot of influence over their classroom writing environment. But, while most identify as proficient readers,\u00a0not many know what it\u2019s like to be a writer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Studies show\u00a0teachers who identify as writers<\/a>\u00a0have a positive impact on their students\u2019 writing. This is because they empathise with the experiences of writers at different stages of the writing process.<\/p>\n

I\u00a0conducted a study<\/a>\u00a0to help teachers understand what the creative writing experience is like for the students they teach. I interviewed eight children in Year 6 (10-11 years old) throughout a creative writing unit in class to find out.<\/p>\n

Another world<\/strong><\/h4>\n

When children write freely, they often feel as though they\u2019re stepping into a different world. All kids I spoke to talked about this experience, with one student summarising it this way:<\/p>\n

I feel like I\u2019m in that place, another world, another zone. So I go into that place where I\u2019m writing. I take my characters there, this large meadow or something. When I come back I\u2019m like, where\u2019s the meadow gone?<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Most feel as though writing is a momentary \u201cescape from your everyday thinking\u201d. One student felt they don\u2019t need to think very hard, because \u201cmy head is creating that and not me\u201d.<\/p>\n

This other-world experience is like watching a movie in vivid detail. Ideas \u201ccome out of the blue\u201d and \u201cpop in and out like a slideshow\u201d. One student said ideas \u201cflow into words like water, through your brain and onto your page\u201d.<\/p>\n

Published authors have\u00a0a similar experience<\/a>. In\u00a0Writing Down the Bones<\/a>, a book on the writing process, author Natalie Goldberg writes:<\/p>\n

Of course, you can sit down and have something you want to say. But then you must let its expression be born in you and on the paper. Don\u2019t hold too tight; allow it to come out how it needs to rather than trying to control it.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

My thoughts have been caged up<\/h4>\n

All students I spoke to talked about the frustration of being pulled out of this other world. One student recounted moments when he thought his writing ideas did not meet the task set by his teacher:
\n
\nMy mind is stuck inside, like, a perfect writing thing. It\u2019s like all those sections where all my thoughts have been [\u2026] have to be caged up.<\/em><\/p>\n

For these children, it is impossible to be a student and a writer at the same time. Being a student means maintaining awareness of task requirements, grade-level standards and rules of spelling, punctuation and grammar.<\/p>\n

Addressing school requirements made one student feel as though they \u201cneed to put away good ideas, and think of what would give me an A\u201d. Another said doing this means they \u201ccan\u2019t let my brain fly\u201d and \u201ccan\u2019t add my own words\u201d.<\/p>\n

This leads to \u201cso many mental blanks because I\u2019m afraid I\u2019m gonna fail\u201d.<\/p>\n

Balancing the student and the writer<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Most students I spoke to expressed being frustrated when free writing time gets interrupted.<\/p>\n

A progressive view of teaching suggests teachers allow children to explore their writing world, encouraging them to make decisions at each stage of the writing process. This is called the\u00a0process approach<\/a>\u00a0to writing and it helps kids develop their writer identities.<\/p>\n

A traditional view favours providing students with fundamental writing skills aimed at developing a finished product, known as the\u00a0product approach<\/a>. This develops kids\u2019 knowledge of texts.<\/p>\n

But are writing identities and knowledge mutually exclusive?<\/p>\n

The students I spoke with understood the need to learn explicit knowledge such as text structures, vocabulary and literary techniques to grow as writers. But they did not think of these things when writing freely.<\/p>\n

Authors\u00a0think more about these things<\/a>, but not necessarily in the first instance. Ernest Hemingway is famously known to\u00a0have said<\/a>: \u201cthe first draft of anything is shit\u201d. And\u00a0Anne Lamott<\/a>\u00a0advised:<\/p>\n

Perfectionism is a mean, frozen form of idealism, while messes are the artist\u2019s true friend. What people somehow (inadvertently, I\u2019m sure) forgot to mention when we were children was that we need to make messes in order to find out who we are and why we are here \u2014 and, by extension, what we\u2019re supposed to be writing.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We can teach kids to think more like authors.<\/p>\n

The solution may be in striking a balance between kids as students and kids as writers. Kids, like published authors, need space to write freely first without distraction from teachers and expectations. This helps them generate ideas, motivating them to find a purpose for their writing.<\/p>\n

Then they become students. They write another draft, but this time they seek advice from teachers to use literary techniques, like authors and their mentors.<\/p>\n
