Recenzii

"As a teacher-leader, I recommend Vicki Spandel's materials to fellow teachers, local, county, and state administrators, college professors, and student teachers. Her books, teaching guides, and podcasts never fail to impress educators from a wide variety of backgrounds and experience. Most importantly, her materials show students of all grade levels how to become stronger authentic writers."

Creating 6-Trait Revisers and Editors for Grade 7: 30 Revision and Editing Lessons

What’s the best way to teach seventh graders to revise and edit? With focused lessons designed especially for them. These 15 revision lessons and 15 editing lessons stress a process approach that spotlights one kind of problem at a time, making revision manageable for seventh graders at all ability levels. Clear illustrations, samples, and step-by-step instructions for each lesson show teachers precisely what writing skill to focus on–how to introduce it, present it, and reinforce it in future writing.
 
“The lessons do a great job of modeling revision and editing and then providing students with writing other than their own with which to practice.” –Laura Stoner, elementary educator, Hampton Roads Academy, Newport News, Virginia
 
“This book offers an organized, effective presentation to help 7th graders improve their writing.” –Donna C. Horton, Hillcrest Middle School, Simpsonville, South Carolina

Caracteristici

  • Organized into 15 revision lessons and 15 editing lessons--perfect for alternating: one revision lesson, followed by one editing lesson, and so on or introducing conventions and editing skills as you go along.
  • Each revision and editing lesson contains basic components and timelines.
  • Shows teachers how-to actively "teach" and "model" revision.
  • Focuses on one kind of writer's problem at time to make revision small and manageable even for beginning revisers--and lets students experience the power that comes with being in charge of their own text.
  • Incorporates very student- and teacher-friendly revision and editing practice that EVERY teacher can use.
  • Includes samples of writing and suggestions to guide you and your students in identifying problems in the text.
