Lucy Calkins is more difficult to follow -- at least at the elementary level. Scholastic has a set of writing kit that ties into reading strategies. I haven't used it but it looks promising.

We have Title 1 money to use before the year is over. We are a targeted middle school in our first year of the grant. We focused this year on balance literacy and reading strategies. We want to continue this focus but need to buy materials for next year. Any suggestions? Or program ideas (not a scripted type please). We have talked about Daily 5. Would that work for middle school? We want something specific and focused with little fluff! Thanks in advance!!
