WRITTING

Page 2: Writting Research

Why do we write?

Page 3: Writting Research

People write for a variety of reasons. For some, it is a career; for others, a hobby. Some write because it helps them to sort out their feelings. Some have a story to tell. And some write because nothing in the world makes them happier.

How does writting begin?

Page 5: Writting Research

Writing is the representation of language in a textual medium through the use of a set of signs or

symbols (known as a writing system).It is distinguished from illustration, such as cave drawing and painting, and non-symbolic preservation of language via non-

textual media, such as magnetic tape audio.It also refers to the creation of meaning and the

information thereby generated.

Page 6: Writting Research

The major writing systems broadly fall into four categories:

IDEOGRAPHYSYLLABARYALPHABETIC

FEATURAL

Page 7: Writting Research

Ideography is a graphic symbol that represents an idea or concept.

Page 8: Writting Research

Syllabary is a set of written symbols that represent syllables,

which make up words.

AlphabetThe word "alphabet" came into Middle English from the

Late Latin word Alphabetum, which in turn originated in the Ancient Greek Αλφάβητος Alphabetos, from alpha and

beta, the first two letters of the Greek alphabet.Alpha and beta in turn came from the first two letters of the

Phoenician alphabet, and meant ox and house respectively and the first three letters of the Arabic language "Alef, أ",

"Ba, ب", and "Ta, ت". There are dozens of alphabets in use today, the most common being Latin,deriving from the first

true alphabet, Greek

The history of the alphabet started in ancient Egypt. By the 27th century BCE Egyptian writing had a set of some 24 hieroglyphs which are called

uniliterals,to represent syllables that begin with a single consonant of their language, plus a vowel (or no vowel) to be supplied by the native speaker. Most alphabetic scripts of India and Eastern Asia are descended from the

Brahmi Script, which is often believed to be a descendent of Aramaic.

A featural alphabet is an alphabet wherein the shapes of the letters are not arbitrary, but encode

phonological features of the phonemes they represent. The term featural was introduced by

Geoffrey Sampson to describe Hangul[1] and Pitman Shorthand

ANCIENT WRITTING

Page 14: Writting Research

A writing system as a set of visible or tactile signs used to represent units of language in a systematic way. This simple

explanation encompasses a large spectrum of writing systems with vastly different stylistic and structural

characteristics spanning across the many regions of the globe. In past centuries, scientists had used writing as one of the "markers" of civilization. While it is true that writing

systems appear to develop in agricultural and urban cultures, by no means it is a requirement for civilization.

Because writing is so intricate there has been many explanations concerning the origins of writing, from

mythological to scientific.

Stages of Writing Development

These stages represent a way of looking at writing development in children. All stages overlap and children progress and reach writing

stages at many different ages. The development of early writing skills is another aspect of your child's emergent literacy development. Regardless

of which stage your child is at, writing development can be enhanced through being encouraged to write on a regular basis. Children should

never be discouraged from exploring writing by the means they are able to do, whether it be scribbling, letter strings, invented spelling, or

conventional spelling.

Page 18: Writting Research

Stage Example

Preliterate: Drawing

•uses drawing to stand for writing •believes that drawings / writing is communication of a purposeful message •read their drawings as if there were writing on them

Page 19: Writting Research

Stage Example

Preliterate: Scribbling

• scribbles but intends it as writing •scribbling resembles writing •holds and uses pencil like an adult

Page 20: Writting Research

Stage Example

Early Emergent: Letter-like forms

•shapes in writing actually resemble letters •shapes are not actually letters •look like poorly formed letters, but are unique creations

Page 21: Writting Research

Stage Example

Emergent: Random-letters or letter strings

uses letter sequences perhaps learned from his/her name may write the same letters in many ways long strings of letters in random order

Page 22: Writting Research

Stage Example

Transitional: Writing via invented spelling

• creates own spelling when conventional spelling is not known •one letter may represent an entire syllable •words may overlay •may not use proper spacing •as writing matures, more words are spelled conventionally •as writing matures, perhaps only one or two letters invented or omitted

Page 23: Writting Research

Stage Example

Fluency: Conventional spelling

•usually resembles adult writing
