Effective writing instruction : evidence-based classroom practices / Alison Davis.
"'Effective writing instruction' provides teachers and students with the knowledge and skills to become active and engaged in the process of learning to write - and learning from writing. This resource offers explicit support for effective classroom instruction. It explores key ideas about writing and presents numerous examples of how teachers can plan for and develop instruction. It also provides activities that actively engage learners in understanding and monitoring their own progress and achievement in writing. The accompanying CD contains graphic organisers that can be used for independent, paired and small-group work during instruction, and as part of planned practice and maintenance of previous learning throughout the year. The graphic organisers also provide explicit models of formative assessment of writing practices and strategies." - Back cover. Includes bibliographical references and index.
