The Ask, Reflect, Text (ART) writing strategy is a strategy that students can use to
improve the content and quality of their written assignments. This evidence-based
strategy was created to motivate students to write, to stimulate more elaborate
story content, to enhance students' knowledge about the writing process, and
promote their capabilities as writers. The ART strategy allows students to practice
generating text, as well as helps them improve their planning and organization
skills. Studies have shown that students with dysgraphia who use the ART strategy
greatly improved the content of their writing and slightly improved the quality of
their writing.
There are three steps to the ART Writing Strategy:
1. Students ask themselves the following questions:
- Who? Where? When?
- What does the main character do? What do the other characters do?
- How does the story end? How do the characters feel?
2. Students reflect on their answers and illustrate them using art media (pencils,
paint, coloured markers, etc.) to create a visual plan.
3. Students use their visual as a point of departure to generate text.
