What educators are saying

This was a great resource to help my students become more comfortable with concise writing. They were engaged and definitely improved with this lesson.
This was great for helping my students understand what information to include when writing and how to avoid writing too much.

Description

Need a quick lesson to review or introduce topics like conciseness, redundancy, or wordiness? This lesson and practice is a great way to prep for tests like the ACT/SAT or teach CCSS L.7.3.A in middle school.

In this lesson, students will:

• Learn what conciseness is and what it could look like (i.e. redundancy, wordiness, passive voice, and more)

• Practice (whole-class, small group, or independently) cutting words and phrases from provided sentences

• Get a chance to pick sentences from their own writing and practice making them more concise.

This 4-page download includes a ready-to-print PDF and EDITABLE student handouts with answer key.
