Standards-based Instruction

To be college and career ready, students need a comprehensive and rigorous foundation in writing. Strategies for Writers covers 100% of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for Writing and Language—and includes CCSS references at point of use—so you can be confident that your students will learn to use writing to

• thoughtfully communicate and support opinions. (Opinion or Argument)
• efficiently examine complex ideas and demonstrate understanding of them. (Informative/Explanatory)
• thoroughly convey experiences and events—both real and imagined. (Narrative)
