摘要：This study investigated the effects of shared writing strategies within a whole language approach on children`s writing behaviors and abilities. The subjects were thirty-six 5-to 6-year-old kindergarten children,18 each in the experimental and control groups. The results indicated a significant increase in frequency of spontaneous writing,quantity of writing,and quality of writing in the experimental group compared with the control group. The educational implications for kindergarten teachers are that teachers need to integrate shared writing strategies into teacher-initiated activities and use various strategies of whole language to improve literacy learning for children..
