Writers develop into great writers by writing!

Third graders become budding authors as they use their imaginations to express their ideas through narrative writing. Instruction designed to build a solid foundation for process writing teaches the application of basic skills. Students use the writing process to revise and publish their work. This includes developing a rich vocabulary, a fluent style with strong organization, sequencing, and well elaborated supporting details. Editing skills (capitalization, punctuation, and grammar) are applied to all written work.
