Description
Some essays are short and written for a specific purpose, such as answering a test question. Others need research, a detailed outline, and should include revision in the writing process. Readers should know how to do it all! The main content takes readers step-by-step through the construction of a strong essay using the Common Core standards, including the basic concepts of grammar, transitions, and vocabulary choice. Colorful photographs and helpful fact boxes engage readers in the process of crafting an essay, especially those based on questions like those commonly encountered in the classroom.
