Part four – write. I’ll let you figure this one out.
Part five – edit. Ask students to be super analytical of their own – or each other’s – work. Ask them to take a look back at their question analysis and plan. Did they meet the criteria? Did they structure their writing as per their plan and include the language they wanted to? Depending on your objectives, students might edit their original draft or re-write completely.
Sound like a lot? This Analyse-Mind Map-Plan-Write-Edit structure works really well – even with younger learners.
Here’s a whole booklet for story writing using this method.
Wow, that’s a big bunch of ideas! I hope that you found something interesting and useful for your class.

A huge thanks to Miranda for taking the time to create such an inspiring post. I hope you are motivated enough to get your students writing either in class or remotely. Also, don’t forget to share your favourite ideas for getting your ESL students writing.
