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.

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.
