(15) Writing/Writing Process. Students use elements of the writing process (planning, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing) to compose text. Students are expected to:

• (A) plan a first draft by selecting a genre appropriate for conveying the intended meaning to an audience and generating ideas through a range of strategies (e.g., brainstorming, graphic organizers, logs, journals);

• (B) develop drafts by categorizing ideas and organizing them into paragraphs;

• (C) revise drafts for coherence, organization, use of simple and compound sentences, and audience;

• (D) edit drafts for grammar, mechanics, and spelling using a teacher-developed rubric; and

• (E) revise final draft in response to feedback from peers and teacher and publish written work for a specific audience.
