Publisher Description:
Put text structures to work and soon your students will be writing happily ever after.

Award-winning authors Gretchen Bernabei and Judi Reimer make teaching to write about abstract concepts easy and fun. Thirty-five lessons centered on classic fairy tales give students the focused practice they need to produce effective analytical writing on demand--and in any situation. Designed to be used by students of all ages, each lesson includes a writing prompt and a planning framework that leads students to organize writing through a text structure. With practice, students move from dependency on teacher guidance to becoming autonomous designers of their own analytical writing.
