Unlocking the Writing Process: Inspiring Lessons and Stories to Get You Started - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Unlocking the Writing Process addresses the difficulties in getting students–especially those with learning disabilities–to write. The use of Visual Arts is an important part of that process.
There are 12 lessons in this book in the form of a teacher’s guide. Detailed lessons and directions for art projects are available for teachers and also for parents who home school their children. Pictures of art work done by students are placed at the end of the lessons.
Grade levels are primarily for students in grades 6 through 12, although those lessons can be adjusted for younger students. Lesson topics include; Journal Writing, Topic Sentences, Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary Development, The Study of Famous Artists, Literary Character Development, Healthy Eating Habits, Greek and Roman Mythology, The Love of Animals, African American Art and History, and Understanding Different Disabilities. Rubrics and Core Curriculum Standards are in the beginning of the book.
Interspersed with lessons are anecdotal stories from the authors 30 years in the classroom teaching grades 1 through 12. Eighteen of those years were focused on students with special needs at the secondary level.
Here, in today’s rapidly changing and challenging environment are methodologies, writing strategies and stories that will help the teacher, the parent teaching at home, and especially the students, find success.
