"Student's writing skills are improving tremendously? Last year's fourthgraders started using the sandwich method midyear and almost all of them scored in the highest possible category when they took the state's standardized Englishlanguage arts test just a few months later."?Wells Central Schools, NYWells Central is just one of numerous schools that attribute their success to Ardith Davis Cole's Better Answers process. Since 2002, her book Better Answers has offered teachers and school districts a powerful alternative to "testprep" workbooks. It presents a dramatically different instructional model that helps students construct thoughtful test responses, but it also prepares them for any task requiring thorough, cogent answers to questions and prompts both in and out of school.Now, with students tested more frequently than ever, and with teachers increasingly concerned about incorporating substantive testtaking skills into children's learning, Ardith Cole responds with a new updated and expanded edition of Better Answers. Informed by Ardith's ongoing work in classrooms where students struggle over constructedresponse tasks, the new edition makes the Better Answers "sandwich" even easier to implement. The book has also been significantly reorganized, as well as expanded to include two new chapters, "Understanding the Prompt" and "What to do When." Also included is a resourcepacked CDROM that contains everything teachers need to support their lessons and is a great tool for staff development: lesson plans for textbased and selfbased responses; power point slides, charts, and other visual supports; sets of sample texts with prompts; sample student responses; assessment forms; extensive bibliography of print and online resources.The Better Answers process is easy to grasp and uses a gradualrelease instructional process that begins with teacher modeling, invites increasing amounts of student participation, and eventually moves students into independent response writing. The book clearly explains each element of the process and provides helpful activities, authentic classroom vignettes, and tips on how to handle typical stumbling blocks along the way.
