This book is a practical, highly readable guide to teaching writing across a broad range of ages and grade levels (K-8). Each stage of the writing process is covered in detail, from setting a purpose for writing to drafting, revising, editing, and producing a "finished" product. The goal is to provide a comprehensive overview of writing development and best practices in teaching, richly illustrated with examples of student work. Teachers learn strategies and techniques to help students work independently and in groups to develop meaningful projects; master needed skills through engaging mini-lessons; produce various forms of fiction and nonfiction writing; and use literature as a source of inspiration and modeling. Special features include "Teacher's Tips" and quick-reference lists that reinforce key points and aid in instructional planning. An invaluable Appendix provides booklists for mini-lessons on a variety of thematic, stylistic, and grammatical topics.

The dream of writing a book for prosperity is one of the so-called purposes in life. They all write it down together with “plant a tree” and “have a child” and most will marry, breed offspring and participate in a reforestation campaign but... what about the book? We walk through a bookstore or visit an exhibition of books from around the world and we are surprised that someone is able to write stories, collect biographies of illustrious men... And even in movies, “diaries” seem to be the ideal of any young person captured on screen. Could it be that it is impossible to write this book in order to leave a mark of our passage in this world? Let me tell you yes. Yes it is possible.
