The series begins with writing letters and words, moves to writing one and then two paragraphs, and finally leads to writing several paragraphs in a specific format. Basic Writing Series features various writing prompts to motivate beginning and struggling writers. Students learn to organize their thoughts and understand the writing process while building writing confidence.
Features
In six units, each level teaches students to write using the Think, Organize, Write method, which incorporates the use of graphic organizers. This method helps students organize and visualize their writing, encouraging successful writing habits. The editing process is taught as an integral part of the program and emphasized through lessons and checklists.
In Basic Writing Series 1 Think, Organize, Write is introduced. By the time the students complete the last unit, they will be able to think of a topic and main idea, organize their ideas, and put their ideas together to write a paragraph. Basic Writing Series 1 Covers letters of the alphabet, everyday vocabulary words, sentence writing, and simple paragraph writing.
Basic Writing Series 2 units begin with an idea inventory so students can reference words or phrases to help with brainstorming. The units continue with a review of one-paragraph writing and then progress to writing two paragraphs about general topics. In final practice activities, students learn to put their own ideas together and use descriptive words to make their writing more interesting.
Basic Writing Series 3 units begin with an idea inventory before moving to the three-paragraph process. The main focus of this Basic Writing Series 3 is to teach students three types of writing: descriptive, narrative, and how-to.
Assessments
Progress charts, scoring rubrics, and student writing checklists are provided to help the teacher assess students progress and determine which skills need to be reviewed.
Each Basic Writing Series Book Includes: over 150 reproducible Activities, Teacher Instruction Pages, Assessments, a Parent or Guardian Letter, Templates for Activities, and Games.
