Description
Stop Stressing Over Lesson Plans. Your Complete Elementary & Middle School Writing Curriculum Bundle is Ready.
Teaching writing across the grades shouldn’t feel like a battle. If you teach anywhere from first through eighth grade, or you’re a school building a consistent 1-8 writing block, this complete Elementary & Middle School Writing Curriculum Bundle gives you a full year of writing instruction for every grade band in one place, ready to drop right into your ELA block.
This bundle includes all three of my writing curriculums: Grades 1-2, Grades 3-5, and Grades 6-8. Each one delivers simple, explicit, research-based writing units that cover all your standards for narrative, fictional narrative, informational, and opinion or argumentative writing. Every lesson pairs explicit instruction with authentic writing practice, giving your students the step-by-step structure they need to write meaningful pieces they care about.
Each curriculum includes 63 bite-sized daily lessons designed to be worked through twice. Cycling back through the units a second time cements the skills, deepens mastery, and builds real confidence and independence. Together, the three curriculums give you a complete, vertically aligned writing routine, with the same predictable structure from first grade all the way through eighth.

A Predictable 3-Step Daily Routine
Every lesson in this elementary & middle school writing curriculum balances explicit instruction with authentic practice through a clear, manageable 3-step routine:
-
Teach with a Visual: Each lesson opens with explicit instruction, using an anchor chart to introduce the day’s strategy clearly.
-
Model with a Sample: You get a done-for-you teacher sample for every lesson, so you can model the exact strategy with no prep.
-
Write and Practice: Students apply the skill that same day in their own writing, putting each new strategy to work in a piece that’s theirs.
Because every lesson includes its own visual, modeling sample, and writing assignment, you have everything you need to teach a strong lesson right at your fingertips, at every grade level.
The Same Four Genres at Every Level
All three curriculums follow the same five-unit structure, so students build on familiar routines as they move up the grades. Each level is written and scaffolded for its age group:
-
Unit 1: Introduction to Writing
Sets the foundation for the year. Students explore author’s purpose by comparing the audience, tone, and goal of the four genres, learn the 6 Traits of Writing, and walk through the five stages of the writing process.
-
Unit 2: Personal Narrative
Guides students step by step as they stretch a small moment into a clear, sequential, personal story.
-
Unit 3: Fictional Narrative
Brings imagination to life as students develop characters, a setting, and a plot for an original story.
-
Unit 4: Informational Writing
Introduces nonfiction structure and gives students the tools to organize facts into a clear informational report.
-
Unit 5: Opinion/Argumentative Writing
Helps students state a clear opinion or claim, back it with reasons and evidence, and write a cohesive piece. The 1-2 and 3-5 levels focus on opinion writing, while the 6-8 level builds into full argumentative essays with counterclaims.
