There are three “Together is Better” handbooks for teaching
writing and reading together: one for
Opinion/Argument Writing, one for
Informative/Explanatory Writing, and one for
Narrative Writing.
The handbooks include a unit planner, mini-lessons, posters,
samples, and standards for teaching writing and
reading together for primary grades K-2.
These documents have been developed to assist you in
teaching writing in your classroom. There are tools and
mini-lessons designed for each of the 3 writing types:
Opinion/Argument,
Informative/Explanatory, and
Narrative writing and some for
ALL writing types.
Be sure to check out the “Together is
Better” Handbooks for Teaching
Writing in this section, too.
