Writing Teacher's Lifeline

An indispensable book for teachers K-8 useful every day. I wouldn't be without this one in my planning center. It has lesson plans in chapters pertaining to the type of writing being assigned. Cute graphics and inspirational quotes mingle with teaching tips and helpful suggestions. If you teach at any level, this one must be in your writing library!

Barry Lane Rules!

I fell in love with Barry Lane after I read After the End and knew I had to read more. I found the Reviser's Toolbox and couldn't believe how many great lessons were in there. The children loved the lessons and became better writers. I highly recommend this book and if you ever get a chance go see him live or check out his videos.

A MUST

As a teacher of elementary writing, I find this to be a bible of writing. Kudos to Barry Lane

The Revisor's Toolbox

I absolutely LOVE this book. While it is helpful to read After the End to get the theory etc, if you are a teacher who loves writing with your children and is looking for new ways to help your children truly REVISE their work, this book is for you.The book is full of wonderful mini-lessons which can be adapted to many different levels. I teach 6th grade, but have recommended it to many younger grade teachers in my building and they love it too. These teachers have not read After the End, but they still able to use the activities with their children and see progress.

Great Resource

This book is a strong compliment to Lane's earlier book, AFTER THE END. I highly recomend both, but this title will be less useful to those who have not read the earlier book. While AFTER THE END contained theory, activity suggestions, and limited samples, the Tool Box is largely activities. It contains many useful ideas, most applicable accross grade levels 2-12, addressing the difficult problem of teaching genuine REVISION , rather than simply re-typing or editing for conventions. As a Middle School Language Arts teacher, I use several of the activities suggested in this volume to expand my kids work and our vocabulary for talking about writing. I hope to use more activities next year, as there are too many to take on all at once. Some are so simple that my students could teach them. This is not a 'work sheet' book. These are activities that you will need to do with your kids as part of your writing program.
