Abstract:
The earlier that teachers think about instruction, and the sooner that students self-assess their progress, the better the final writing product will be. What Student Writing Teaches Us provides practical suggestions for teachers of writing. This book offers no "easy" solutions, because assessing writing is not an easy endeavor. Every suggestion in the book has been classroom tested with the help of "experts"--Students ages 5 to 14--who are quoted throughout the book.
