The Writing Rope Book Study
Joan Sedita's Writing Rope combines various skills and approaches to form the core elements of a complete writing curriculum: critical thinking, sentence structure (syntax), organization of text, writing techniques, and spelling/handwriting (transcription).
Participants will receive clear and practical guidance to simplify the process of assisting students in developing writing skills across different subjects. This book is packed with numerous templates, handouts, and supplementary materials to guide instruction. Participants will be equipped with everything necessary to create and provide direct, top-notch writing instruction.
While the primary audience for this book is grades 4-8, many of the teaching tips can also benefit younger students and high schoolers, particularly those facing challenges in writing.
NOTE: Participants will need to obtain a copy of the book The Writing Rope, by Joan Sedita prior to the start of the course.
