- Graphic organizers are used extensively to help students organize their thoughts and writing
- Interactive lessons guide students through a four-step process:
- Read
- Plan
- Write
- Review and Edit
- Students use checklists to assess and revise their writing
- Students apply their skills with unit reviews and practice tests
The Teacher's Guide contains:
- A scope and sequence chart that shows readings by type and subject, and skills covered in each lesson
- An answer key with filled-in graphic organizers and sample answer essays
