What’s Inside the Middle School Writing & Grammar Curriculum

The Writing Component

• A complete, multi-unit, full-year writing component that takes the guesswork out of teaching multi-paragraph academic essays.

• Core units: An Introduction to Academic Writing unit plus three comprehensive genre units aligned to secondary expectations: Argumentative, Informational/Explanatory, and Literary Narrative.

• Daily lessons: Step-by-step daily lessons designed to guide students through the complete writing process—from analyzing mentor texts to drafting, revising, and editing.

• Simple structure: Every lesson follows a Teach, Model, Write structure featuring clear visual presentation materials, done-for-you modeling pieces, and a concrete daily writing assignment.

• Teacher tools: A detailed scope and sequence, curated mentor text lists, graphic organizers for essay outlines, and standards-based assessment rubrics.

• Bonus materials: Instructional anchor charts, peer-editing protocols, student conferencing guides, and printable digital writing templates.

The Grammar Component

• A complete, comprehensive, full-year grammar component that teaches 30 advanced language skills in the context of student writing, in just 10 minutes a day.

• Predictable routine: Each skill follows the same 5-day routine across the week, replacing isolated drills with deep sentence analysis.

  • Notice the skill inside a high-quality mentor sentence.

  • Learn the rule and structural pattern with an anchor slide.

  • Practice by manipulating, editing, and imitating complex sentences.

  • Apply the exact grammatical skill directly into active writing pieces.

  • Assess command with a quick, data-driven check for understanding.

• Ready-to-use resources: Secondary scope and sequence, projectable mentor sentence slides, Teach pages, and focused practice and apply worksheets.

• Assessments & support: Weekly skill assessments with rubrics and instructional video demonstrations for every step.

Two Simple Routines That Work Together

• Both parts of this Middle School writing & grammar curriculum are designed to fit perfectly into a single, dedicated 30-to-40-minute daily writing block. Your writing lessons build structural craft and rhetorical style, while your grammar routine sharpens complex mechanics, ensuring the two components explicitly support each other all year.

• Grammar routine (First 10 minutes): Notice, teach, practice, apply, and assess complex language skills—like phrases, clauses, and parallel structure—in a fast-paced daily warmup.

• Writing routine (Next 20-30 minutes): Transition seamlessly into the core writing workshop using a 3-step structure—teach with a visual, model the craft move, and have students work on their multi-paragraph essays.

Everything Included in This Middle School Writing & Grammar Curriculum Bundle

• Both programs come as ready-to-print PDFs, with no additional add-ons to buy or track down online.

• Writing curriculum: Core genre units, daily lessons, modeling samples, graphic organizers, and comprehensive essay rubrics.

• Grammar curriculum: 30 secondary skills (including active/passive voice, subordinating conjunctions, and advanced punctuation), mentor sentence slides, and application worksheets.

• Scope and sequence for both: Clear roadmaps outlining objective progressions and standards alignment so you always know exactly what you are teaching.

• Standards alignment: All lessons and skills directly align to sixth, seventh, and eighth grade Common Core ELA standards.
