Writing Scope and Sequence 4th Grade

This writing scope and sequence was designed to save you HOURS of planning time...FOR YOUR ENTIRE YEAR! It is over 100 pages of Writing lesson plans and notes!! Already have a scope from your district? You can still use this document as a pacing guide!!

I have included ALL Texas 4th grade Writing TEKS!! Although CCSS are not included, all skills covered correlate with things that you want your kids to know and do when it comes to writing.

**YOU WILL NEED FUN SIZE ACADEMIC WRITING BY GRETCHEN BERNABEI IN ORDER TO COMPLETELY FOLLOW THIS SCOPE & SEQUENCE**

**NOTE: I have updated this scope to reflect the 2020-2021 school year. For your convenience, I have included both OLD and NEW TEKS to help with the transition!

Included:

1. Year at a Glance

2. Unit overview page for each unit

• number of weeks
• calendar days
• focus
• activities
• TEKS (both OLD and NEW!!)
• misconceptions
• takeaways

3. Notes for the teacher

• tips for implementation
• suggestions
• page numbers for lessons and mentor texts

4. Calendar (color and black & white versions) with daily activities for 36 weeks (through the end of May). I also included a calendar with no dates since we don't know exactly what this year holds.

5. Pages with student samples and pictures of work, games, and anchor charts

6. Links to helpful websites, blog posts, and videos to help you and your students understand these strategies even better.

7. Resource pages where you can find all lessons and mentor texts

8. Additional Activities and photos listed at the end

I appreciate your feedback! And if you ever have questions, my email is listed in the back of this resource. I'm always ready to help in any way that I can!!
