Daily Paragraph Editing Book Grade 7

Daily Paragraph Editing grade 7 provides 36 weeks of frequent, focused language practice to help your seventh graders learn the conventions of standard English grammar and usage. The concise daily activities are ideal “warm-up” exercises to begin your language arts block and are adaptable for small-group and whole-class instruction. 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 *realistic fiction. Also includes the following: *scope and sequence chart *annotated answer key *assessment rubric *reproducible language handbook *page of reproducible proofreading marks *editing checklist for students. 176 pages
