So after 2 years in the ESL game, I'm still yet to see a the perfect textbook series for early writers. I'm talking beginner elementary school kids (say from 6-9 years old).
For writing up till now, I've just found interesting pictures with a lot of stuff going on, and in class we've written sentences with some shared writing and some independant writing. But our school (hagwan) now wants each class/level to have a writing book, too.
One pretty good book I came across was 'Write about my World'. This book was perfect with a small class of fairly gifted young (7-8 year old)kids. But there was not a series.
I want to some books that give lots of support to young learners - very simple, lots of pictures for visual support, etc. Anyway, I'd really appreciate people's ideas about your favorite writing books.
Cheers!
p.s. had no luck with the search, and looked over about 40 previous pages. If someone knows the relevant thread, please point me in the right direction. |
