Info

We recognise the importance of commenting regularly on children’s work in a meaningful and helpful way. Our comments may ask questions, seek answers, encourage, remind, emphasise an improvement or point out a difficulty. We aim to provide feedback in a constructive and interesting manner. The children need to understand and be able to read our comments. They should also know what it required in response to our marking. We believe it is not essential to correct every mistake in a piece of written work, but to correct those elements to which individual children have been asked to pay particular attention. For example, this may be the use of capital letters or the spelling of particular words. 38 We encourage the use of the school editing key when marking grammatical or spelling errors. Those incorrect words that the teacher feels a child should be ready or able to spell may be written out three times. When appropriate we encourage children to self-correct their work using the editing key displayed in each classroom. This work can be carried out effectively with a partner. Where a piece of work is to be copied out as a presentation piece we will make sure it has been thoroughly marked. We would not want a child to be copying out an incorrect piece, as this would serve to reinforce the errors. For some children it is in appropriate for them to copy out a piece of writing and, if their first draft is a quality piece of work from them, it should be used for presentation as it stands. 4. Conclusion Our teachers spend a lot of time marking children’s work, in one form or another, and we recognise the importance of being clear and consistent in our practice. We see marking within the general context of giving feedback, both written and verbal, on all the things our children do in school.
