Which of the following represents the typical pedagogical sequence to teach students to write I. get students to write letters with straight lines and curves II. get students to draw a number of specific shapes III. get students to read aloud and write letters multiple times?

Option 3 : II, I, III

Writing skills include all the knowledge and abilities related to expressing yourself through the written word. It is a sound understanding of language through grammar, spelling, and punctuation.

• When a child first puts a pen or pencil on paper she begins the journey with highly conscious participation in the writing process. Slowly, with time and experience, the shaping of letters into words and sentences becomes automatic. 

Typical pedagogical sequence to teach students to write includes:

• Get students to draw a number of specific shapes: At first children do not make any differentiation between drawing and writing. In early literacy, drawing also falls into the genre of writing as when children start writing they first draw and scribble with crayons.
• Get students to write letters with straight lines and curves: A number of subskills are involved in the skill of writing. The learner has to acquire certain mechanical abilities like writing in straight lines and curves over the indicated space, using punctuation marks, and so on.
• Get students to read aloud and write letters multiple times:  When the students learned to use straight lines and curves then s/he should be engaged in reading aloud the written or printed page and writing the letters multiple times.

Hence, it is clear that II, I, and III represent the typical pedagogical sequence to teach students to write.
