What educators are saying
This year I used this to help students find author's craft in the lit circle books, next year I'm going to use is all year. The examples are excellent, the chart is going to be a permanent part of my curriculum.
Teaching authors craft is a difficult task and this was a very helpful resource to help my students get a better understanding of the topic.
