Description
"Free to Write" grew from an experiment in a fifth grade classroom into a newspaper article, into a book, and beyond. The book offers hundreds of practical ideas on how to turn elementary and middle school students into better writers and learners. In it, the author argues that freeing children to write--and then giving them responsibility for improving their work--will turn them into more effective communicators, more insightful readers, more critical thinkers, and more efficient learners.
