Real World Writing

Newly revised, Real-World Writing has been expanded to two reproducible binders full of everyday writing activities. Students practice basic writing skills and learn strategies for dealing with writing found in day-to-day life, including how to complete job applications, compose e-mails, create cover letters and resumes, write thank-you notes, keep a journal, maintain a blog, and draft reports. Activity sheets use realistic print found in everyday life.

Units
Titles include Business Letters and E-Mails; Personal Letters and Correspondence; Banking Forms; Lists; Memos, Faxes, and Messages; Job Applications, Resumes, and Cover Letters; Schedules and Calendars; Notes, Outlines, and Reports; Signs and Classified Ads; and Forms, Applications, and Contracts. Each unit begins with a lesson plan that provides ideas to help students familiarize themselves with the genre of writing to be covered in the unit. Includes information for a classroom dialogue and hands-on activities.

Lesson Plans

Each unit begins with a lesson plan that includes unit objectives, teaching strategies, and plans for incorporating extension activities and assessment into the unit.

Activities
Numerous activity sheets follow each lesson plan, allowing for extensive individual practice. Activity sheets feature realistic graphics that are identical to print seen in the real world.

Assessments
