Lead a writing revolution in your classroom with the proven Hochman Method

Teachers at all grade levels are expected to bring students' writing ability up to rigorous state standards, but there is little reliable guidance on how to do that. Teachers need a road map for teaching writing, and The Writing Revolution offers just that. This bestseller shows K-12 educators how they can incorporate The Hochman Method of writing instruction in their instruction, no matter what subject they're teaching or the grade or ability level of their students. This new edition builds on the success of the first and adds valuable new guidance for all educators. With even more student-facing examples, it's easier than ever to incorporate the method into your classroom.

The Writing Revolution isn't a separate curriculum or program teachers need to juggle. Rather, it is a method providing strategies and activities that teachers can adapt to their preexisting curriculum and weave into their content instruction. By focusing on specific techniques that match their students' needs and providing them with targeted feedback, teachers will find they can turn weak writers into strong and confident communicators. With The Writing Revolution, you can help your students:

• Identify comprehension gaps
• Boost reading comprehension and learning
• Improve organizational and study skills
• Enhance speaking abilities
• Develop analytical capabilities

The Writing Revolution takes the mystery out of teaching students to write well.
