Description
Learn the ten keys to effective writing instruction! In this dynamic book, bestselling author Lori G. Wilfong takes you through today’s best practices for teaching writing and how to implement them in the classroom. She also points out practices that should be avoided, helping you figure out how to update your teaching so that all students can reach success.
You’ll discover how to…
Make sure students have enough work in a genre before you assign writing
Develop thoughtful, short writing prompts that are "infinite" and not finite
Have students read and learn from master authors in the genre they are writing
Create a writing community so that writing is not an isolated activity
Use anchor charts and minilessons, along with rubrics and checklists
Implement revising strategies, not just editing strategies, taught in context
Use conferencing to grow students as thoughtful, reflective writers
Let narratives be personal and creative, focusing on details and imagery
Let informational writing explore a topic creatively and in depth
Let argument writing be situated in real-world application and not be limited to one-sided, "what-if" debates
Every chapter begins with an engaging scenario, includes the "why" behind the practice and how it connects to the Common Core, and clearly describes how implement the strategy. The book also contains tons of handy templates that you can reproduce and use in your own classroom.
