The Journal of Educational Research, 2015, vol. 108, issue 1, 35-44

Abstract: This full-year experimental study examined how methods of writing instruction contribute to kindergarten students' acquisition of foundational and compositional early writing skills. Multiple regression with cluster analysis was used to compare 3 writing instructional groups: an interactive writing group, a writing workshop group, and a traditional writing instruction control group. Results revealed significant differences among the 3 methods of instruction for influencing student learning of compositional writing skills. Implications of these findings are discussed.
