This is a book for teachers, by teachers, about teaching writing. In it, veteran teachers assert that writing, especially if it is authentic, must be taught comprehensively and not segmented into distinct measurable skills. An ideal guide for those who have not had access to professional development in teaching writing, the book gives readers the benefit of hearing first hand from real people teaching real students–teachers who have great credibility and knowledge about teaching writing, plus the “evidence” of their success as shown in their students’ writing samples.
