Skill-building through potent instruction, day by day

In these much-anticipated sequels to The Common Core Companion, Janiel Wagstaff and Leslie Blauman provide a collection of connected lessons and formative writing assessments that bring Monday-to-Friday clarity to the task of integrating reading and writing with ELA standards. In each volume, the 50+ lessons are divided into fi ve, week-long learning sequences addressing key literacygoals. A best-practice glossary, If/Then charts, unit-planning calendars, and other tools round out these essential references, both in book and online. Follow each sequence and week by week, you'll build the instructional potency to help students achieve a year's worth of growth as you integrate:

  • Writing Narratives with Identifying Sensory Words in Text
  • Research with Identifying Topic and Details
  • Opinion Writing with Close Reading for Text Evidence
  • Comparing and Contrasting with Publishing Using Digital Tools
  • Informative Writing with Use of Text Features
