Thanks annelee! I will go check it out.

My boy’s sch also practices writing drafts… I visited a tuition centre recently, its creative writing class also do drafts so it may take two lessons to finish the compo. I am unsure if it is a norm, his currently tuition centre didn’t do that though…

I think writing drafts is quite a common practice but whether it is effective depends on the teacher and the child. If the child can learn from reading the teacher's comments and re-writing his work, and if the teacher can guide the child effectively through this method then writing drafts is good. My sister's kids used to go to a tuition centre (small centre that is not one of the more well-known English ones) where they did drafts and she found that while they understood what was wrong with their composition, they did not know how to make it better, like which phrases to put in or how to build up the story more. But when one of her kid had a school teacher in P5 who also made them do drafts but gave very clear examples to guide him, he began to improve. So while one teacher (from the tuition centre) made them do drafts, they did not improve but when another (from the school) made one of her kids do it, he improved. So I think it all depends on the teacher and also how well the child takes to it.
