This book has step by step lesson ideas that will work well in my 3rd grade classroom. It also lists other books for the traits which enabled me to go through my personal library to see with what books I could build my own lessons.

Fantastic!
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This is a great book for teaching the writing traits. And, it's easily adaptable to grades 5 and 6 also. I highly recommend it.

Great lessons for immediate use
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This book contains transcripts and activities of lessons taught in conjunction with specific examples of children's lit. The transcripts show how the intended activity emerges. Some planning would be necessary to have these books on hand, or similar examples could be substituted. Overall, I think this will be a great book to use with my class.

Good Resource
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
Book is full of excellent resources. I used it with my fifth graders and they enjoyed the lessons. My only wish is there would be more lessons for each of the traits.

Best writing book I've ever used!
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
I am a third grade teacher of mostly at-risk students (English Lang. Learners and low socio-economic students). I was frustrated with the format of most writing instruction books. They were boring or hard to follow. I also wanted to incorporate the 6 traits of writing into my lessons, so when I saw this book, I thought I would try it.

I love how Sloan walks you through each lesson, what to say, what to do. The lessons are simple to understand and give for the teacher and the students.

It incorporates read-alouds of real books at the beginning of each lesson and shows how it ties in to what you're teaching.

My students were better writers from the very first lesson!
