All the suggestions are great but my personal favourite is Step Up to
Writing. You can purchase it through Sopris West. Wonderful strategies to
help teachers TEACH rather than just assign writing, and help students
transfer skills they learn on one piece of writing to another. A focus on
writing process as well as text structure. Our entire junior school now
uses this program wit great success.
