More and more one can see how amazing it could be if all the students in a class have tablets. Imagine having just one or two minutes each day to get the students writing! This website http://oneworld.com is designed for just that. All you have to do is:
  • You’ll see one word at the top of the following screen.
  • You have sixty seconds to write about it.
  • Click go and the page will load with the cursor in place.
  • Don’t think. Just write.

Advantages of daily writing practise:
  • This could get students into the habit of just writing and thinking out of the box.
  • By writing every day, the students gain fluency while getting a chance to practice important punctuation, spelling, and style skills in context
  • The students will soon start writing more fluently.
