This remarkable book will show teachers how to guide students
through the various stages of the writing process and teach them to
focus on the purpose for writing in all kinds of non-fiction. It
will help teachers assess what students know so they can plan more
successful instruction. Teachers of content-area subjects will
discover ways they can help their students become better, more
capable writers. They will learn how to take students through all
the steps involved in producing written documents - from generating
ideas to researching to revising and editing - along with practical
tips for supporting and encouraging student work. "Exploring
Writing in the Content Areas" suggests specific techniques designed
to help students: organise information into paragraphs; use visual
elements like photographs, charts, and diagrams to enhance written
text; find and document secondary source material; create powerful
pictures using words. This practical book also explains how
teachers can provide student writers with the concrete,
constructive feedback they need. It demonstrates how assessment can
guide effective teaching practices. Good writers think more
clearly, organise information more logically, and approach all
their schoolwork with greater confidence and self-assurance. This
indispensable resource proves that helping students develop their
writing skills is one of the most important contributions any
teacher can make towards student success in school, and beyond.
