The strategy instruction idea I use is
from the content area of writing. It is very important students
learn how to write academically. Learning to create
content that flows is critical. I like to teach using the
analogy of a car without a driver. A car without a driver is going no
where. Students have to learn to approach writing considering the reader.
Where are you going? What is your opinion? How can you
support your opinion? Opinion plus three topics = your thesis statement.
The thesis statement tells your readers what you are going to write
about.
