Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The title says it all!
This is a great resource for any teacher who wants to inform his/her writing instruction in their classroom. I feel that this book helped me plan purposeful and authentic writing experiences for my students. A must have!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super teaching help!
This book helps teachers explore the art of teaching with children. It has many teacher friendly lesson plans that coordinate well with 6 Traits teaching.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Good "Starter" Book
This is not an in-depth, philosophical treatment of writing (though some may say the author accomplishes it indirectly), but an example after example fun activity tool for teachers--sprinkled with nuggets of wisdom throughout. For those who find such things useful (I don't necessarily) this latest edition includes rubrics, portfolio assessment, and writing across the curriculum. Even if you find only a small portion helpful, the purchase is worth the price. Suitable for primary through middle school. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Teaching Writing
I found this to be one of the most useful books for teaching writing skills. It is loaded with ideas that can be used in the classroom and can be used with teaching teachers how to teach writing skills. This book has some of the most creative and effective ideas I have seen in a long time. In fact I loaned it to someone about a year ago and have not seen it since. This demonstrates its quality. It is an easy read with samples that one can use in class forever. I recommend it highly.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellent resource for upper-elementary writing teachers
This book provides numerous ideas and suggestions for creative and purposeful writing activities for upper elementary level students. The activities are easy to intergrate in a busy classroom, can be adapted for different grade and ability levels, and the kids love them!
