Personal Author EPSB
Ruth. Culham

Summary
Why has the '6+1 TRAIT' model had such a tremendous impact on writing instruction? Because it works. It allows teachers to pinpoint students' strengths and weaknesses in ideas, organization, voice, word choice, sentence fluency, conventions, and presentation, and focus instruction. Now Culham turns her expert eye to our youngest students. Like her groundbreaking guide for grades 3 and up, this book contains scoring guides, sample papers, and focus lessons for each trait, but framed to address K-2 teachers' needs. These powerful models give you everything you need to assess and teach young writers.
