Synopsis

This dynamic resource offers teachers a new way to energize the teaching of writing while also meeting Common Core State Standards. The author draws on his unique background in education and media to provide this all-in-one resource to help teachers use the versatility of scriptwriting to motivate students and support literacy skills across the disciplines. Each chapter covers a different medium, outlining the writing skills required and providing practical tips, sample projects, standards alignment, and strategies for differentiated instruction. Book Features: Rationale, curricular connections, lessons, and projects to help teachers incorporate scriptwriting into their existing writing curriculum. Annotated writing models, including one from the #1 New York Times bestselling civil rights memoir, March. Suggestions for using assignments in the disciplines to process content and exhibit understanding. Authentic connections to students’ in-school and out-of-school literacies. Easy-to-use sections, such as Why Teach This?, Skills Focus, Literacy Across the Disciplines, and The Writing Process. Robust differentiated instruction, including specific strategies for English language learners and below-level students. QuickStart lesson launchers to help both teachers and students become comfortable—and have fun--with scriptwriting. Appendices with additional resources, revision checklists, writing rubrics, and a glossary of media and script terms.
