Exemplars presents a collection of remarkable student writing samples along with powerful strategies for using them to establish standards and to generate more effective classroom writing!This innovative book explores how teachers can use student exemplars as part of classroom writing instruction. More than 50 exemplar-based mini-lessons provide a hands-on, flexible approach to meeting specific student writing needs. These activities involve students in evaluating writing samples and then applying what they have learned to their own work.Organized around the six key traits of good writing—content, organization, sentence variety, word choice, voice, and language conventions—this resource for both new and experienced teachers demonstrates how to collect and present student writing samples to engage young writers and model effective skills.
