What readers will love about this book is that it offers bigpicture understandings of teaching, then it zooms in and offers the details of that teaching.Katie Wood Ray, author of About the AuthorsFirst graders have no shortage of ideas. The hard part for them is putting thoughts together into a cohesive draft. Organizing and planning for writing defy simple description and aren't easily modeled for students, making them challenging topics to convey to young children. Where do you find the language and tactics to teach these subtle processes?With First Grade Writers, Stephanie Parsons will change how you think about teaching the thinking behind writing. Parsons outlines five specific units of study for your writing workshop that help students prepare thoughtfully to write. Beginning with a September unit specially designed to introduce the writing workshop to first graders and build a classroom community that supports risk taking and learning, each successive unit builds upon the previous one and fosters independence. By June your students will know how to plan for writing out loud and on paper, leading to elegant, wellstructured pieces. The units also help children to differentiate the planning and organization needed to write: fiction personal narrative nonfiction Q & A books pattern books. Best of all, First Grade Writers is cornerofthedesk practical with concise, logically laidout descriptions of how each unit of study operates, a variety of helpful tables, charts, and assessment diagnostics, as well as elaborations, teaching points for minilessons and conferences, troubleshooting tips, and monthbymonth planning assistance.If you're new to first grade, Stephanie Parsons will give you ideas for topnotch teaching that will be invaluable as you establish your first writing workshop. If you're a veteran, the units in First Grade Writers will augment your existing workshop and help your students clearly conceptualize what highquality writing looks like. Either way, you'll help them write better by thinking about the thinking behind good writing.
