Abstract
Often students have struggled in their writing confidence in an English Language Arts classroom, and many do not see themselves as strong, capable writers. However, instructional strategies used in the classroom can make or break students' improvement. Writing can be significantly improved by frequent practice and varied instruction. Exploring various instructional writing strategies and their effects can help improve how students see their writing. While analyzing the established literature from assorted levels of education, this research addresses the results of incorporating specific strategies in an active classroom. The effects of traditional writing strategies, like the 5E model and peer reviews, are paired with more modern and accommodating approaches, like using social media and wikis in research. How will these five strategies influence the way writing is completed and perceived in a Southern Ohio high school ELA classroom when more writing is implemented?

Various Writing Strategies Improve Grades and Student’s Writing Attitude
Often students have struggled in their writing confidence in an English Language Arts classroom, and many do not see themselves as strong, capable writers. However, instructional strategies used in the classroom can make or break students' improvement. Writing can be significantly improved by frequent practice and varied instruction. Exploring various instructional writing strategies and their effects can help improve how students see their writing. While analyzing the established literature from assorted levels of education, this research addresses the results of incorporating specific strategies in an active classroom. The effects of traditional writing strategies, like the 5E model and peer reviews, are paired with more modern and accommodating approaches, like using social media and wikis in research. How will these five strategies influence the way writing is completed and perceived in a Southern Ohio high school ELA classroom when more writing is implemented?
