14. “Teach the writer, not the writing.”
~Donald Murray

15. Children want to write. They want to write the
first day they attend school. This is no
accident. Before they went to school, they
marked up walls, pavements, and newspapers
with crayons, chalk, pens or pencils . . .
anything that makes a mark. The child’s mark
says, “I am.”
~ Donald Graves, 1983

16. “Secondary students should be writing as
much as possible each day in English class and
across the curriculum…if not they have little
opportunity to learn to think through the
medium of writing.”
~ Donald Graves, 1994

17. “Writing which encourages the writer to
develop his or her own knowledge of a subject
can activate thinking and stimulate the best
kind of learning.”
~ Jackie Proett and Kent Gill,
The Writing Process in Action

18. “You have to write badly to write well.”
“Students need to write before they can write.”
~Donald Murray

19. “How can I know what I think until I see what
I say?”
~E.M. Forester
