{"product_id":"9781462514540","title":"Learning to Write with Purpose: Effective Instruction in Grades 4-8","description":"\u003cp\u003eCommunicating ideas and information is what makes writing meaningful—yet many upper elementary and middle school students write in a vacuum, without considering the aims of their writing or the needs of their readers. This highly informative, teacher-friendly book presents a fresh perspective on writing instruction along with practical methods for the classroom. Teachers learn ways to promote the skills and strategies needed to write and revise effectively in a range of genres: personal narratives, fiction, and poetry; persuasive, explanatory, and \"how-to\" writing; and writing for high-stakes tests. Special features include vivid classroom vignettes, examples of student work, evaluation guidelines, and suggested \"mentor texts\" that model different genres.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guilford Publications, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129409257712,"sku":"9781462514540","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781462514540_p0.jpg?v=1763677048","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781462514540","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
