Writing Power: Engaging Thinking Through Writing

This book will guide teachers through a series of lessons focusing on each of the strategies — Connect, Question, Visualize, Infer and Transform — with suggested anchor books for each lesson. The fundamentals of the Writing Process and the Six Traits are used to develop an awareness of how the reader’s thinking can influence and affect a student’s ability to write.
