Step-by-step lessons to grow strong writers in the Lower Elementary (1st-3rd grade) classroom. Unit 5 includes four weeks of instruction for a Writing Workshop group (2 lessons per week) and a Shared Writing group (1 lesson per week) focused on applying the Writing Cycle to the process of how-do directions. This comprehensive unit plan includes scripted lessons, sample writing pieces, rubrics, and handouts. Montessori For All will publish one unit per month for the entire 2024-25 school year. Other units include research reports, letters, persuasive writing, fiction stories, etc.
Unit 5 deepens work with the Writing Cycle through how-to directions. Children choose a new skill to learn, they teach themselves the skill, and then they write how-to directions to teach others. They will be highly engaged while learning foundational writing skills. This unit can be adapted for use with 4th-6th graders.
The Writing Workshop and Shared Writing lessons are bound in a single book and mailed directly to you via USPS.
Your purchase also includes free PDF handouts that can be printed directly from our website.
