NEW! Revision and Grammar Workshops Offer Targeted Help
When and Where Students Need It
Not all students make the same kinds of errors with grammar and conventions, or need
to revise their writing in the same way. So, at the end of the book, we include eight
Revision Workshops and fifteen Grammar Workshops with scaffolded activities that
guide students from understanding to application in their own writing. These activities
are far more effective than the old skill-and-drill approach, and they help teachers to
meet their students’ individual writing needs.

NEW! ELL Support Includes Essential Tools to Build
Understanding
Teachers know that English Language Learners are capable of high-level academic
work, they just need the right supports. That’s why — in addition to the supports already
built into the book like Key Context notes, Vocabulary in Context questions, and
Foundational Texts — we are offering Essential Guide handouts for every reading that
offer a suite of ELL supports, such as a summary of the text to support comprehension,
additional context to help build background knowledge, specific help with word- and
sentence-level challenges in the text, and more.
Uncorrected proofs have been used in this sample.
