Through anecdote, classroom vignette, and his own experience as a
writer and teacher, Barry encourages teachers of any grade level to
start a writing program tomorrow and not wait until they have
attained perfect understanding. Barry's motto: Let's learn along
the way! For use with Grades K-12.
One of the most popular literary genres, memoir can provide
literary and literacy access to reluctant adolescent readers and
writers, and help bridge the achievement gap by motivating students
to read more critically and write more meaningfully about what
matters most to them. The introspective nature of memoir helps
students learn about themselves and connect with their environment
or community, while also meeting a variety of Common Core
standards. In this way, memoirs and creative nonfiction can provide
a bridge between *fiction and nonfiction reading, *narrative and
informative writing, *reading and writing, and *can afford a "way
in" to literacy for all adolescents. Special features of the book:
*examples of multiple mentor texts in each chapter *teacher
examples with think-aloud exercises *a variety of student samples
from diverse learners *activities to engage all learners *an
appendix of teacher resources *a reference list of over 150
full-length memoirs for grades 5-12 for whole-class, book club, or
independent reading *a list of writing resources for students and
teachers *12 full-size reproducible materials for teacher and
student use *a variety of reading, writing, speaking, and listening
strategies and activities *across-disciplines applications and
adaptations for diverse learners *daily writing focus lessons in
gradual-release-responsibility format *Common Core State Standard
