Q: Is writing instruction incorporated in Fountas & Pinnell Classroom™ (FPC)?
A: Writing is integrated into all of the following FPC instructional contexts:
- Guided Reading (in the Writing about Reading section)
- Shared Reading (in the Responding to the Text section)
- Interactive Read-Aloud (in the Responding to the Text section)
- Independent Reading (in the Writing about Reading prompts)
The Fountas & Pinnell Literacy Continuum contains a Writing continuum, which can be used as a planning document and a way of assessing writing progress. As with all of the continua, the behaviors described represent goals for a year of instruction.
