Springboards for Writing Ref: 222-8
* Brenda McNeal
Do you have middle and high school students who can hardly write a correct sentence? Do you wonder how to help them at this late date?
Try Springboards for Writing, a carefully developed, sequenced writing programme that features daily
student writing and group discussion on three basic concepts:
- What is a sentence?
- What is an effective sentence?
- How are sentences combined into larger units?
The programme builds on what students already know about the spoken language and minimises the rules and terms students must learn. It provides models for
discussion, followed by hundreds of opportunities to expand on a variety of high interest topics.
A delightful, thoughtful programme that encourages and stimulates student attention and involvement.
