| Abstract | "In this book, you'll find a wealth of mini lessons designed to improve the quality of students' writing. Each lesson uses a key mentor text and spotlights one of the 6 + 1 Writing Traits to allow students to focus on the essential aspects of good writing- Content, Organization, Word Choice, Voice, Sentence Fluency, Conventions, and Presentation. Inviting and practical, the lessons are concise and follow a consistent model for easy implementation. With seven lessons per chapter, each includes step-by-step guidance, open-ended prompts, and suggestions for additional suitable mentor texts. The chapters are organized by genre-including fiction, informational texts, and poetry-and feature graphic novels and graphic informational mentor texts to inspire and engage students. Aligned with the Common Core State Standards, this resource is essential for any K-8 or pre-service teacher who wants to instil in their students the skills to become independent, confident writers"-- Provided by publisher. |
