Let's be real ...
You already know teaching writing is tough.
And with all the planning and prepping and grading and searching online for writing lessons taking up your time, it’s virtually impossible to implement a consistent and effective writing curriculum that gets your students mastering the writing standards.
And if you’re like most of the middle school ELA teachers before they start working with us, then you probably feel frustrated and fed-up with the choppy and disorganized writing your students produce ... you likely even feel as though you’re drowning in piles of mediocre essays to grade each Sunday afternoon (already dreading the next essay you’re going to assign).
And, we get it. We’ve all been there.
The truth is ... you might have your students write consistently throughout the year, but do you ever teach them HOW to write?
We totally get it. You have a lot to teach during your ELA period and you never thought you’d be THAT teacher that only practiced writing that appeared on state testing. You thought your students would be the ones who loved writing and who impressed you with their clever evidence from the text and thoughtful analysis ... and it’s frustrating that they don’t.
The thing is ... if you don’t EXPLICITLY teach your students how to write using a framework that actually works, then they will continue to struggle and produce below-average writing.
Isn’t it time you started feeling confident about teaching writing?
