Writing Mini-Lessons for First Grade: The Four-Blocks® Model (Four-Blocks Literacy Model)

Although I really enjoyed reading this book, I have only implemented the ideas a few times this year. Perhaps because I am not in a 4 blocks school, some of the ideas don't work as well for me. What I like and use in it is the mini-lesson topics and a way of getting the kids interested in writing more than the prescribed lessons themselves. I have fewer hours in the classroom than most first grade teachers. A public school teacher could probably benefit more than I from it.

It's a very basic style book. Doesn't take long to go through it and pick things of use out.

Thanks! Great mini lessons for teaching writing! I've highlighted the book all over! This is a great book if you teach first grade!

Great
