To start, you will find tips about how to:
- Prompt student writing,
- Coach students to generate their own topics, and
- Create ways to keep writing fresh for the entire school year.
But more than just providing a teacher’s guide for prompting students to fill a notebook with first-draft writing, you will walk through a step-by-step guide to help students:
- Plan for revision,
- Compose markedly improved second drafts,
- Host conversations about their improved writing,
- Add style to their writing through grammar instruction, and
- Master the mental moves necessary to produce better drafts.
