Description
Everyday Editing offers a fresh approach to teaching editing and revision in the writing workshop. By focusing on the importance of punctuation, grammar, and style in communicating meaning, this guide helps teachers develop their students' skills and craft.
Written in an engaging and practical style, Everyday Editing provides an overview of its approach to editing within the writing workshop, along with ten detailed lesson sets covering a range of topics from apostrophes to serial commas. This book offers a more effective method for improving student writing than traditional error-based strategies.
With this guide, teachers can replace daily oral language lessons or focus on errors in their writing instruction with a more meaningful approach that helps students develop their writing skills and produce high-quality work.
