Know the Code: Writing Skills Development for Older Students

Do you work with older students who need to develop writing skills? This is a multisensory PDF resource that offers explicit instruction in the writing process, and provides numerous writing prompts: prompts with visuals; written prompts (no visuals) and journal topics that are engaging, and helps develop high cognitive skills along with writing skills.

Older student appreciate the style of this multisensory resource; it does not insult students with babyish looking font, and visuals. The prompts are designed for older students.

Please review the preview file as it highlights most of the resource. This resource provides students with specific writing strategies, text boxes that include a variety of word choices; and text boxes for students to fill-in as they progress through the pages.

Answer keys are not included since each student will provide responses based on their personal knowledge bases.

Please email me with any questions or comments. It is my hope that this NO PREP resource will provide high quality writing materials for your students, and help reduce time you need to prepare a thorough document for long-term development!

Thank you.
