Children can refer to it and be directed to it when using it during the year. Own choice writing - using different motivations - pictures / videos / dogo news - sometimes directed with genre / sometimes own choice genre. Using computer for writing - children can feel if haven’t published it on computer then don’t feel it is finished / engagement is higher / using speak onto computer has increased amount of work being output / each piece of writing published start on computer / writing in books first - allows some editing process / children can go onto other pages that they shouldn’t be on.
