Emergent Writing

Emergent Writing is a developmental literacy process whereby young children, before mastering conventional writing, engage in nonstandard, exploratory inscription forms such as scribbles, letter-like forms, and invented spellings to convey meaning, reflecting their growing understanding of written language.
