Teaching Young Writers

I homeschool and I have found this book to be an incredible resource for me. I feel like it is helping me to teach strong writers and I am so happy that I found this book. My mother teaches first grade and uses it in her classroom and also really enjoys it. I feel that this is one of the best books I have found for teaching children to be able to formulate their ideas and write well. I love the approach of modeling for the children. It is a terrific book, and I highly recommend it.

This book has ideas that are great for teachers of older grades as well as younger grades.

Lola Schaefer is an excellent writer and a master teacher, with many years experience. Her book is what every teacher needs to get their kids writing, examining their writing, and improving their writing. This book is excellent for both teachers that are writers and teachers who feel uncomfortable teaching writing. It smooths the process and makes it one of enjoyable discovery with your class.
