I watched every single video in your writing playlist. 😂 I'm making my way through your writing video series. I'd love to join the writing group; when will it open again? Thank you so much ~

I have loved this series! Thank you so much for sharing these! I'm planning to use the mentor texts like you mentioned to show the difference adding those strategies into writing will make. ❤

Which of your products do you recommend for 3rd and 4th grade (who have not learned sentence writing or developed a sentence writing routine?)

Writing is very difficult for 1st graders! Would you consider doing a video of your class while you are teaching writing ?
