Does your learner need help with writing essays? Do your students believe they can write an excellent essay? This practical workbook teaches your students how to write a 5-paragraph essay using a foolproof step-by-step process. Each mini-lesson teaches one step and contains practice examples to build your learner's writing skill and confidence. Every student will benefit from this confidence-building, reliable process that can be reused for any type of essay or assignment in any class. In Part 1, students learn how to plan an essay:
- Your learners will practice the five easy steps that take them from the essay prompt to an excellent essay outline. Once you have an outline, writing the essay is easy!
- Each step is practiced individually, and then linked so that students develop confidence in the complete process.
- Each step is laid out visually so students can follow along and understand where they are in the process.
Part 2 continues the step-by-step approach and teaches how to write each paragraph in an essay.
After finishing this workbook, all your learners will have confidence that they can ace any essay! This book is designed to help all students, but it is particularly helpful for struggling or diverse learners.
The book is also designed for the busy teacher (or parent). There are no long introductions, explanations, or theoretical descriptions. This book respects your time and allows you to start teaching (or assign work) within 5 minutes. Key additional elements of this best-selling workbook include:
