Overview

Teaching Writing offers balanced writing instruction that focuses on both process and product. It provides a comprehensive vision of the strategies that writers use, the writing genres and the writer's craft, along with techniques for improving the quality of students' writing. Authentic classroom artifacts, mini lessons and day-to-day teaching strategies are integrated throughout the text to guide you in your learning and offer applied examples.

The 7th Edition continues to thoroughly examine genres and instructional procedures with a strong focus on scaffolding instruction to ensure success for all students, including English learners and struggling writers. Comprehensive coverage of both process and product (along with valuable insights on differentiation, technology, assessment, writing to demonstrate learning and the six traits of writing), offers you the best possible preparation for teaching writing in K to 8 classrooms.
