Bundle ~ 4th Grade DAILY WRITING READY ~ Full Year Daily Language Review

With the implementation of the new ELA TEKS this year, having a daily spiral review in your toolbox that reviews all the TEKS for language, spelling, and writing is a MUST!!
DAILY WRITING READY© is a standards-based program that follows a research-based model of continuous, systematic instruction, building from simple to complex to help students learn and retain skills.  The full bundle includes 34 weeks of daily lessons & weekly assessments.

**SAVE 20% on this FULL-YEAR BUNDLE!! Includes 9 months of 4th grade daily writing, grammar, & language lessons and weekly assessments for August/September – May/June!**

How it Works:
Monday – Thursday, students will practice:

• 2 sentence-editing exercises
• 2-3 language/vocabulary exercises
• 1 sentence-diagramming exercise
• 1 exit ticket (a short, 1-2 minute formative assessment linked to the objective of that day’s lessons)

On Friday, students will complete a brief, 1-page formal assessment measuring their understanding of the skills taught during the week. An optional study guide is provided also to give to students on Monday before the test so that parents can work with their children at home throughout the week.

The program is designed so that all ELA TEKS are covered during the first 20 weeks (August – February week 2) of instruction. In week 21 (February week 3), the daily lessons will evolve into short STAAR-formatted passages with 2 revising & editing multiple-choice questions each day on Monday-Thursday. The Friday assessments for weeks 21-34 will include a slightly longer STAAR-formatted passage with 10 revising & editing multiple-choice questions and an optional expository writing prompt. A 26-lined written composition paper is included, as well as a rubric for grading the essay. The program is designed so that all 4th grade ELA TEKS are covered and reviewed before the STAAR Writing Test; the daily lessons & assessments after the STAAR test will continue to review the 4th grade ELA skills until the end of the school year.
