Subject index
Deeper Writing: Prompting New Writing Possibilities is directly aligned to key English learning core standards and will be a valuable tool for teachers working with young writers. The book provides simple and flexible, yet provocative, writing ideas that can be used with all levels of writers. These prompts are not the typical one-line story starters or formulaic fill-in the blank activities, but are designed to lead to substantive, meaningful writing and foster reflection on a variety of relevant and thought-provoking topics.
Included with each prompt are carefully chosen mentor texts that model the possible shapes and forms writing might take and stimulate individual reflection and writing. This book will support teachers as they strive to make writing workshop, journaling and all aspects of writing instruction more meaningful, and to provide opportunities for substantive engagement for their students.
