Targeted High Yield Strategy
Writing to Raise Achievement
Supporting Content Mastery Through Frequent, Purposeful Writing
Writing to Raise Achievement positions writing as a daily instructional tool that builds content understanding and strengthens students’ ability to think, communicate, and reflect. By embedding Writing to Learn strategies during lesson instruction and emphasizing Writing to Inform as the purpose of the lesson assignment, teachers create an environment where students are actively engaged and developing their academic writing skills. For all teachers - all content areas!
When students regularly write to brainstorm, summarize, question, and explain, they improve both their conceptual understanding and their writing proficiency. Through consistent, purposeful writing opportunities and structured feedback, educators can increase the quality and quantity of student writing and elevate learning across all content areas.
