Abstract

In the final years of primary school education it is assumed students have acquired considerable mastery of the writing process in preparation for the more complex engagement with disciplinary knowledge at a secondary level. In addition to acquiring these skills, students have also embodied certain dispositions towards learning, which by this stage of their schooling are quite firmly entrenched. This is evident in the remarks of the two Year 5 teachers above, yet the learning dispositions of the students in each of these teacher's classes were quite different.
