Writing better effective strategies for teaching students with learning difficulties

Synopsis

"Struggling writers can improve their skills dramatically if they get the detailed, explicit instruction they need. With this practical guidebook, equally effective for students who have learning disabilities or just need extra help, elementary and middle school teachers will discover how to use this systematic instruction in their classrooms." "Photocopiable student worksheets give teachers ready-to-use writing activities, and before-and-after examples of student writing demonstrate how the strategies work. With these practical, scientifically validated ideas and exercises, teachers will help struggling students develop the skills they need to improve their classwork and change the way they feel about writing."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
