TITLE:

Step Up to Writing 3rd Edition

DESCRIPTION:

Step Up to Writing can be used quickly and applies to all subjects.  Step Up strategies can be used throughout the day for all kinds of assignments. Students learn to visualize each academic task through multisensory instruction, such as color-coding the parts of a paragraph or report or using paper folds to visually separate information on a page.  The focus of these approaches is to promote the goal of all good writing: clear communication.
