RACHEL - 2nd grade teacher
An amazing resource for a teacher whose strength is not ELA/writing, or if they are a new teacher and have not had the chance to teach writing, or if there are large swings in ability within one class. The organization, step-by-step instruction, the pre-made anchor charts are all amazing. My favorite part is the ROUTINE. Routine is so great for teachers and students.
PATRICIA - 3rd grade teacher
Everything is laid out clearly with daily lesson plans, graphic organizers, anchor charts, and all the tools I need for narrative, informational, and opinion writing. The structure is even great for students who struggle with writing: the scaffolding and model texts help build both confidence and competency. I’d definitely recommend this bundle if you want a ready‑to‑use, comprehensive writing program that requires almost zero prep.
denise - 4th grade TEACHER
This has been such a game changer for my students as I get used to teaching writing in fourth grade, first year in fourth! It is very step by step and students feel very successful. They are all participating every day. I wished I had found this earlier in the year and it is going to be a staple in my room from day 1 next year!!!!! Thank you!
LISA - 5th grade teacher
This has everything you need to teach grammar and writing, all laid out day by day. I like that the writing workshop keeps all the students together. It provides short, daily grammar lessons based on mentor sentences. Students practice writing their own sentences modeled after the mentor sentence to reinforce the grammar skill. They also love the weekly Boom Cards. Thanks for providing everything needed to teach grammar and writing!
