At the beginning of every school year, we bet you ask yourself, OWhat do I want my students to know and do as readers and writers by the end of this year?O This bookNjust for Grade 1Nmakes that question easy to answer by taking all the guesswork out of teaching reading and writing. Provides a detailed curricular calendar that's tied to a developmental continuum and the standards so you'll know not only what you should be teaching, but what your students are ready to embrace and what you can reasonably expect of them as successful readers and writers. Additionally, you'll find monthly units of study that integrate reading and writing so both work together to provide maximum support for your students. The units are organized around four essential components, process, genre, strategy, and conventions, so you're reassured you're addressing everything your students need to know about reading and writing. What's more you'll find ready-to-use lessons that offer exemplary teaching and continuous assessment, and a flexible framework that shows you how to frame a year of teaching, a unit, and a lessonNand you can easily adapt all to fit the unique needs and interests of your own students. For use with Grade 1.

Excellent Resource,
This review is from: Complete Year in Reading and Writing: Grade 1: Daily Lessons - Monthly Units - Yearlong Calendar (Paperback)
There are so many great elements to books in this series - I love how closely and clearly linked the reading and writing units are; that the authors include a list of anchor texts for each unit to address that always present question from teachers about which books to order, use, etc.; that there are sample charts and sample pieces of student work throughout to spotlight the real-life classroom work that occurs. I will certainly recommend this series to the teachers and administrators with whom I work.

Vague and lacking,
This review is from: Complete Year in Reading and Writing: Grade 1: Daily Lessons - Monthly Units - Yearlong Calendar (Paperback)
I found this book extremely vague in it's design and detail. They mention a complete year in writing but I don't see all the elements of writing covered at all (I was looking for a book to help with writer's workshop). There is nothing here to help you start teaching nor a plan on how to build on top, it is a one page basic outline on each page and I am left thinking are you kidding? I paid for your lack of detail and incoherency. They really need to take the time to focus on the curriculum needs because this book does not meet them all by any means or at least where I come from. Was very disappointed, still searching for a good, reasonably priced book for teaching writing for the year to grade 1's

This review is from: Complete Year in Reading and Writing: Grade 1: Daily Lessons - Monthly Units - Yearlong Calendar (Paperback)
This product is good to assist in planning year round. For a new teacher this is a great tool and for an experienced teacher this is a great resource to update your instruction.
