I cannot say enough AMAZING things about this resource. I, like many other teachers, lacked the confidence to teach writing appropriately. I love the student-friendly mentor texts that are short, yet effective. The graphic organizers are SO helpful and the students enjoy them. the instructional support is incredible.

This unit saved my butt this year. My school's writing curriculum was lacking, so I was so lucky to come across this to teach instead. I really enjoyed how the lessons had students write entire essays, then go back and practice editing/rewriting through different lenses. This habit/lesson can be tough for 4th graders so breaking it into little chunks like that was great. I didn't have to teach the fiction writing, but students had so much fun with it and it help give more practice for essential skills. As a new teacher this was my saving grace and I really look forward to building on what I learned from this next year

if you're like me and think teaching writing to kids is the hardest thing, this resource for you. lesson plans, activities, and everything thing you could need is included. No planning or scrapping around for resources needed on your part!

I love this resources. It has mentor text, anchor charts, and writing checklist. I love how this unit has 3 different types of writing. My students love it!
