RAFT is a writing strategy that helps students understand their role as a writer, the audience they will address, the varied formats for writing, and the topic theyu2019ll be writing about. By using this strategy, teachers encourage students to write creatively, to consider a topic from a different perspective, and to gain practice writing for different audiences.
