Description - FPC|The Writing Minilessons Book, Grade 1 by Irene C. Fountas

Develop students' deep knowledge of literacy concepts with these must-have interactive writing and writing minilessons—150 concise, explicit, whole-group lessons with a purposeful application in building students' literacy power. As children take on literacy in a joyful way, they grow in oral language, reading, and writing. With The Writing Minilessons Book, engage students in inquiry that leads to the discovery and understanding of a general principle they can apply to their learning. Principles are based on the kindergarten behaviours and understandings in the one-of-a-kind, market-leading Literacy Continuum.
The minilessons in this book serve as a guide to a meaningful, systematic approach to literacy learning. When you surround children with literacy activities and print, provide them with time to write, encourage their efforts with enthusiasm, and gently guide them, you create the right conditions for children to grow into confident, engaged writers. Put interactive writing lessons and writing minilessons into action and make learning visible for every child, every day.
