Daily Paragraph Editing, Grade 6 Teacher Resource Book includes 36 weeks of targeted lessons that will immediately become your favorite supplement to your language arts curriculum. The 176 page focused language arts activities provide the practice students need to produce error-free writing assignments and include easy-to-use teacher support to deliver the lessons.

How it works:

Students apply grade-level language skills to correct a paragraph on Monday through Thursday; when read together, the four paragraphs form a cohesive composition. A writing prompt on Friday relates to the week's four-paragraph composition and gives students the chance to apply the targeted language conventions.

The weekly compositions cover a broad range of expository and narrative writing forms, including:

  • nonfiction texts on grade-level social studies and science topics
  • biographies, book reviews, instructions, interviews, journal entries, and letters
  • fables, fantasy and science fiction, historical fiction, personal narratives,
    and realistic fiction

Daily Paragraph Editing Grade 6 covers grade-level skills such as:

  • Capitalization
    • quotations, salutations, and closings
    • incorrect use of capitals
    • names of people, places, and organizations
    • titles of books, magazines, movies, and songs
  • Language Usage
    • singular and plural forms
    • verb tenses
    • correct use of pronouns and adjectival and adverbial forms
