Abstract

The object of this study is to obtain knowledge about the control of the writing skill that students of sixth grade acquire in our state schools. Based on an approach that considers certain phases in the learning of writing, we try to determine whether the students cover stages like taking dictation, building a sentence that offers personal information, and telling stories based on topics they are familiar with. The findings allow us to say that there are state schools that actually help students advance through the stages mentioned before. The knowledge acquired can be a contribution to the planning of language courses not only for the mother tongue, but also for a second language
