This guide for pre- and in-service classroom teachers of grades K-12 gathers instructional practices for teaching writing, illustrated with classroom examples and vignettes from all grades. The first chapter overviews evidence-based practices and what is known about writing development and best practices. The rest of the book offers teacher-based and scientifically based best practices, without neglecting foundational skills and writing interventions. Coverage encompasses the classroom environment and motivation, writing for specific purposes, and aspects of teaching such as planning and assessment. This third edition contains new coverage of narrative, spelling, special needs students, English language learners, and digital tools. Annotation ©2019 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
