Build a Better Paragraph: Write more detailed paragraphs with PowerPoint Lessons

A New Way to Help Your Students Build Great Paragraphs
A new way to help your students write great paragraphs. The key to writing strong, interesting writing is the details. This model helps your student write a paragraph that will blow you and everyone else away. With the new Smarter Balanced Assessments coming, your students will need to be able to write clear explanations. This writing model provides a writing structure that leads to clear, strong writing.

This model is classroom, student tested. I have developed it over many years of teaching students to take state writing assessments. Writing on standardized assessments is getting to be more and more common. Here is a tool to help prepare your students.

This is a tool for your students to use all year long to write great paragraphs. The lessons last 7-10 days, but you can use the tools all year long to write great paragraphs.

This packet includes everything you need: posters, graphic organizers, lesson plans, PowerPoint, rubrics and more.

Designed for grades 3-6 but can easily be used with middle school students who struggle with writing. (I even used the model with my high school son to improve his Writing SAT scores).

Once students have mastered writing paragraphs with this model, they can transform those great paragraphs into extraordinary essays.
