If you don't want to have to dream up assignments to teach your children the writing process, you will appreciate the thoroughness of Writing Strands. This write-in workbook first identifies the skills being taught, lists objectives, presents models, gives prewriting experiences, breaks the exercises into manageable parts, and then helps your child produce essays, reports and creative pieces. The material is very well organized and arranged into with day-by-day assignments. Instructions are written to the child, not the teacher, so your child can follow the assignments independently. Paperback, approximately 100 pages.
