“Using these practical lessons, you can teach your own subject matter in more compelling and memorable ways—and at the same time, help your students become better thinkers and writers across the day and through the year.” —Harvey “Smokey” Daniels and Nancy Steineke

Content-area teachers, rejoice once again: Harvey “Smokey” Daniels and Nancy Steineke bring you the companion volume to their ever popular Texts & Lessons for Content-Area Reading—this time helping students “write to learn,” using powerful writing and thinking strategies that get students engaged in your content and prepare them for academic writing, but don’t increase your workload.

“And here’s the bonus you’ll only believe once you try this stuff,” Smokey and Nancy write, “these strategies add joy to our teaching. Classes feel crisper and more energetic; there is flow between writing and talking, reflection and action.”
Three text set lessons designed to be studied, written about, and debated together are divided into three nonfiction writing genres:

• Narrative Nonfiction
• Explanatory/Informational
• Persuasive texts/argumentative

NEW!A new web support feature in this edition includes downloadable copies of all the texts, articles, forms, prompts, and images that accompany lessons. Writing to learn in your content area has never been so cool—or so easy.
