 Teach your students to use conventions to craft their writing, not just 'correct' itGrades K–5     Linda Hoyt's Conventions and Craft provides a year's worth of instruction in the language skills writers need most—grammar, sentence structure, punctuation and capitalization, word knowledge, and editing.
One convention, or 'understanding,' is covered each week in a lesson cycle made up of five 'micro-workshops' that take just 10 minutes a day!
Everything you need for an entire year of instruction is included: - Teacher's Guide
- A comprehensive 192-page, spiral bound, day-by-day guide contains 38 step-by-step weekly lesson cycles that you can teach in any order you choose, plus lesson support pages, assessment tools, a sample year-long plan, and record keeping tool.
- Anthology of Short Texts
- 14 full-colour, student-friendly informational articles from Scholastic's classroom magazines and student-written pieces serve as mentor texts.
- Quality Children's Books
- 6 grade-appropriate non-fiction books on high-interest subjects also serve as mentor texts.
- Even more teaching tools online at the FREE companion website!
