Writing Process Steps

The robotics club is making a story to share at its next meeting. Help Charlotte, Nikau and Mele take their story through the writing process. Read each task carefully and write your own ideas where asked.

Put the steps in order

Write 1–5 beside each writing-process step. Start with the first thing a writer does.

1.Number these steps in the order a writer usually uses them: publishing; drafting; editing; prewriting (planning); revising.
2.Nikau has finished a first copy. He wants to add a surprising problem for the robot to solve and make the ending clearer. Which step is he doing?
  • Prewriting
  • Drafting
  • Revising
  • Publishing
3.Charlotte checks her story for missing full stops, capital letters and spelling mistakes. Which step is this?
  • Drafting
  • Editing
  • Prewriting
  • Publishing

Plan and build the story

The club's robot has accidentally delivered a mystery parcel to the wrong place. Use the writing process to shape a story about what happens next.

4.Prewriting: Choose who is in the story, where the robot goes and what problem needs solving. Write one idea for each.
5.Drafting: Write two or three sentences to begin your story. Introduce a character and show what goes wrong with the parcel.
6.Revising: Read your draft again. Name one change that could make the events easier to picture or the problem more exciting.
7.Editing: Correct this sentence by adding capitals and punctuation: the robot found the parcel under a chair
8.True or false: Writers must get every sentence perfect while drafting, so they should not change their first copy.
TrueFalse
9.Mele has edited her story and made a neat final copy with a title and illustration. What is the next step if she shares it with the club?
10.Explain one way the writing process helps a writer make a story clearer or more enjoyable for a reader.
