The guide provides assistance with the theoretical and practical implementation of the curriculum area "Writing." The first part, "Fundamentals of Writing," summarizes the key findings of recent writing pedagogy and explains methodological principles. The five strands of the second part are organized by writing forms and offer a progression-oriented overview of the curriculum area "Writing." In addition to grade-specific explanations of the respective fundamentals of each writing form and notes on methodology and teaching practice, there are task examples intended to showcase the possibilities of the new writing forms. Significant innovative work has been done here, which will surely be of interest to colleagues from other types of schools and in other federal states. The accompanying CD-ROM contains the task examples prepared for use.
