Strategies for Writing Grade 2 - Over the Moon: A guide to teaching writing for those who are just starting out ...and for those who are already on their way. Grade 2

by Shelle Renae, Jaycee Singleton, Christine Bakke

Overview

"One of the most difficult things to teach is writing," many teachers say. Or, they don't say it, they just think it in their heads. Even worse yet, they brush it under the rug day after day, year after year, because they are not sure where to begin. Fortunately, a manual has arrived that will, not only empower you to be a successful passionate writing teacher but will engage your students at all levels of learning. It will empower them to read and write with enthusiasm. Brain research shows that students learn best when they use their entire body. Over the Moon creates a warm, friendly atmosphere drenched with excitement and empowerment for the writing process for Second Graders. You will wonder how you ever lived without it!

Editorial Reviews

I've been using SFW for over five years now. My students become strong writers, communicators, and independent thinkers. It engages ALL of my learners. They love the chants, the silly ideas, and writing. It is our favorite part of each day!
