Synopsis

Are your students excited about writing? Do you want them to be?

Do you want them to ask for more writing opportunities and assignments? Do you want them to engage in writing tasks more quickly and with more fluency?

The traditional five-step writing process never explicitly teaches students to be fluent in their writing―to be able to write quickly on any topic. Extreme Writing targets precisely that with focused, daily writing sessions that provide students with consistent, long-term engagement. It is designed to appeal to students in grades 4-8, and―best of all―the approach involves little extra work for you.

In The Power of Extreme Writing, author Diana Cruchley not only outlines the process but also describes what it looks like in the classroom, explains how to assess student work, and highlights more than a dozen unique inspirations that motivate students to write.

Extreme Writing: it's fun, it's fast, and it works.
