Synopsis

Lucy Calkins and her colleagues from the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project are extending their bestselling writing workshop curriculum to the middle school grades. Like the K–5 Units of Study series, the middle school series not only provides a coherent, systematic curriculum in the three types of writing mandated by the Common Core—opinion/argument, information, and narrative writing—it also reflects the latest research on data-based, responsive instruction.In Unit 2, Literary Analyzing Craft and Theme, students write arguments and counterarguments about themes in texts, supporting their positions with details of plot, character, and author's craft.
