Previous research has shown that there is a huge difference between experienced and inexperienced
writers in the process and the product of their text production. The first two sections of the study,
summarizes the results of composition research at national and international levels. It shows
the role of social environment, motivation, working memory, long-term memory, and cognitive
processes in the writing process of experienced and inexperienced 9-11-year-old pupils. In the
third section, the study investigates the creative writing pieces of pupils in the fourth grade
from five different places (a big city, two towns, and two villages). Their pieces of writing is
analysed with respect to the relations among text production strategy, topic continuation, topic
development, as well as macrostructure. In the light of the above, we might get a clearer picture
of the characteristics of he text production of this age group.
