Abstract

This paper aims to explain how to teach writing to young learners by implementing Interactive Writing strategy. Interactive writing is an instructional writing method used for young learners; it is a collaborative writing experience where the teacher and the students workas a team to create a piece of writing. This strategy is known as sharing pen because the teacher guides the students to fix the word or sentences directly. Interactive Writing is a good strategy that supports strong reading and writing connections. Because during interactive writing students are encouraged to read a text and say words slowly before they begin writing the text. The process of analyzing new words by saying them slowly allows students to link sounds and letters together. Then, one by one student comes to write, the teacher guides the student at spelling the word, forming the letter, arranging the letter, adding the appropriate capitalization or punctuation and spacing the word.By using this strategy, the teacher can make the writing activity more fun and they will know all of their student's needs. Then, the young learners will easily organize their ideas and feel confident with their writing because students write a text by the teacher’s help beside them.  Also, it will make young learners more interested in writing.
