Writing samples provide authentic insight into a student’s writing ability across time and settings. Teachers can use these samples to evaluate sentence structure, spelling, organization, and idea development. This resource benefits students with learning disabilities, dysgraphia, or written expression difficulties because it helps educators identify patterns in their writing strengths and weaknesses. I recommend this resource because it supports data-driven goal setting and helps guide individualized instructional planning based on real student work. Portfolio-based assessment is an effective method for monitoring writing growth through evidence.
