These timesaving, comprehensive resources provide you with everything you need
to masterfully teach the mechanics of writing in ways that support all
students. Short, scripted lessons, presented in a consistent 3-day cycle,
engage students as you weave explicit instruction into your ongoing
curriculum. By using the
Skills Continuum and recommended
Year-Long
Planning Calendar, you can easily find suggested teaching topics
by grade, combine them with your state standards and class needs, and
then build a personalized curriculum map for the school year. Numerous
templates, including a student “Skills I Can Use” sheet,
help chart and celebrate each student's progress!
Comprehensive planning tools and reproducibles:
- streamline teacher prep time
- empower student transfer of learning to authentic writing tasks
