peer respnse to: Writing is a complex process that involves various skills from planning and organizing to expressing thoughts and ideas through print. The writing process often involves different steps and an understanding of different writing purposes and audiences. In addition, foundational phonics skills play an important role in writing, particularly for spelling. Vocabulary knowledge is another component that plays a role in writing. For students identified with having a learning disability, this complex process can be difficult. However, when it comes to writing, teachers can support their students who have been identified with having a learning disability. When it comes to the components of writing, the Hayes and Flower model provides a framework that includes "the social context of writing, the writer's knowledge, planning what to write, text production, evaluating one's own writing, self-regulation of one's writing process" (MacArthur, Charles A., n.d.). When it comes to strategies for writing, students with a learning disability are often less aware of these steps for planning, organizing, and putting their thoughts and ideas into print. When it comes to this area of writing, students with a learning disability are often "more dependent on external cues, such as how much to write, teacher feedback, and mechanical presentation of the paper. They demonstrate significant difficulties in planning, writing, and revising text" (Vaughn et al., 2020, p.269)
