My Students

One of my 3 classes includes special needs students. Disabilities range from dyslexia to language impairment. Many of my students receive backpack food on the weekend, and our school also has over 70% free or reduced lunches.

Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best.

They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day. Some of them struggle to write and with this project, I hope to turn that around.

My Project

This STEP-BY-STEP INTERACTIVE WRITING NOTEBOOK IS A COMPLETE WRITER'S WORKSHOP PROGRAM with all the tools needed for the entire year. It is filled with engaging lessons (scripted), anchor charts, modeling, mentor text, interactive notebook pages, practice, and all the forms, graphic organizers, checklists, and rubrics necessary to teach and assess writing.

Scaffolding through the writing process continues to be an effective and successful approach to teach writing.

Every lesson builds upon the previous skill within one piece of writing. This provides students with a thorough understanding of how to put a quality piece of writing together. It helps even the most reluctant writers become ROCKSTAR WRITERS! A study shows that 98% of two classes using the program scored in the exceptional range on state testing.

This resource that I will purchase from Teachers Pay Teachers is going to provide a daily notebook that we will use to help keep notes and work harder on our essay writings!
