Abstract: Writing often serves as a medium for students to express their feelings as well as share their perspectives gained. Students can benefit from learning to articulate through authentic and relevant writing. Writing can be beneficial in all core subjects (not just English Language Arts) as well as special programs (such as Fine Arts and Physical Education). This article shares the importance of writing to learn, with discussion about integrating writing in core subjects at school and beyond the classroom (at home). In order to further engage students, insight will be shared on how to teach the major purposes for writing in a way that is more applicable and relevant to students' lives.
