Craft Lessons: Teaching Writing K-8

I’m already loving this book. It’s super easy to use. You identify what mini lesson to teach and flip to the page. Easy to implement in any writing class.

It is so hard finding a book on writer's craft ideas. This covers all elementary grade levels up to 8th grade, with ideas that can be adapted for every grade. I can't wait to use the lessons contained as a spring board to my writer's workshop!

This is a terrific how-to book.

Thanks

Great, easy to follow book. I use the mini lessons in this book every week. There are some great mentor texts in here as well.

Started reading this book and couldn't stop! Great ideas for the classroom. I have already used many of the recommended text, as well as, the samples in the back of the book.

Very accessible, and therefore, easy to implement in my classroom.This is an approved curriculum choice. The same teaching points as Calkins without the unnecessary words.

Fletcher helped me rethink the craft of writing and how to transfer the strategies and skills for writing to your students.
