Description

The Paragraph Book series is an intensive writing intervention program tailored for middle school students with learning differences who have struggled with traditional language arts curricula. The series employs a systematic, step-by-step approach to enhance writing proficiency, starting from basic paragraph construction to mastering four essential writing strands commonly taught in English classes. One of the key features of the series is its emphasis on editing marks, a tool particularly beneficial for students with motor skill challenges, as it allows them to revise their work without the need to rewrite entire passages. The structured nature of the series provides a clear framework for students, helping them to build confidence in their writing abilities. The series pays close attention to common writing errors such as missing capitals, dropped endings, and incorrect word usage, ensuring that students develop a keen eye for detail. By the end of each book, students are equipped to write complete essays with a solid understanding of paragraph structure and composition.



The Paragraph Book: Book 1 focuses on writing How-To paragraphs and covers topics such as the FNTF (First, Next, Then, Finally) formula, revising techniques, paragraph format, punctuation, capitalization, content checking, author's purpose, balance, audience, and crafting a How-To essay. The book comprises 128 pages and is designed for grades 6-8 remedial students. Please note that this item is available for purchase by Homeschools only.
