Bethalto's New Writing Workshop
Our new writing workshop units will:
- help you teach opinion/argument, information, and narrative writing with increasing complexity and sophistication
- unpack the Common Core writing standards as you guide students to attain and exceed those expectations
- foster high-level thinking, including regular chances to synthesize, analyze, and critique
- develop and refine strategies for writing across the curriculum
- support greater independence and fluency through intensive writing opportunities
- include strategic performance assessments to help monitor mastery and differentiate instruction
- provide a ladder of exemplar texts that model writing progressions across grades K–8
