Jen Serravallo's spiral-bound guide collects 300 writing strategies grouped under 10 goals, from composing with pictures to conventions. Each strategy comes with step-by-step teaching language, prompts and mentor-text suggestions, so a teacher can match instruction to a specific writer's need. It follows the format of her Reading Strategies Book and is built for K-8 writing workshops. Teachers use it as a reference to plan units, coach individuals and stock a writing center rather than as a cover-to-cover read.
