Abstract
The scientific study of specific teaching practices in writing began well over 100 years ago (e.g., Cornman, 1902). Enough studies have been conducted over the ensuing years that there are currently more than 20 meta-analyses of the writing intervention literature (e.g., Bangert-Drowns, 1993; Hillocks, 1986; Graham & Perin, 2007a). This chapter provides a synthesis of these previous reviews, as we conducted a new meta-analysis using all of the studies, involving students in grades 1 to 12, included in these previous summaries. This allowed us to identify evidence-based writing practices for children and youngsters in these grades.
