Essay Architect

Are you new to teaching writing, or do you just need a little help?  Secondary Solutions® continues to make every effort to find out what you need to make your teaching day go more smoothly. So now, in addition to our Literature Guides, we have something new!   We would like to introduce you to our latest innovation, Essay Architect!   Essay Architect™ is an all-inclusive, step-by-step method you can use to walk your students through the often confusing process of essay writing.  With our system, your students will gain the confidence they need to write better essays, through Preparation, Practice, Performance, and Polish! 

In the Essay Architect™ writing system you will find 104 pages of reproducible worksheets, examples, teaching guides, graphic organizers, terminology, models, rubrics, quizzes, and more.

The Essay Architect™ writing system was developed by a secondary teacher to help other secondary teachers teach the often daunting, yet vitally important skill of essay writing.  Designed for use in grades 6-12, Essay Architect™ will help you teach everything your students need to know about writing a great essay, from the essential structure and vocabulary, to pre-writing, to polishing the essay in its final stages.  Students have the opportunity to learn and practice every step of the process before actually writing an essay, and learn how to evaluate and assess other essays to recognize high-quality, well-written essays, as well as poorly-written, weak writing. Best of all, we have not overlooked the often difficult to teach areas of Literary Analysis/Response to Literature Essays, Writing Research Papers, and Finding and Incorporating Quotations.

Once you have completed this entire process from start to finish, you will no longer have to take the time to teach and re-teach your students the necessary skills of essay writing.  You will only have to work to help your students improve their essays with heightened vocabulary, stronger evidence, and higher-level thinking.  We even include the necessary materials to help you achieve that goal!

It seems as if there are not enough hours in the school year to teach students everything they need to learn to meet state and national content standards, so we can always use help to alleviate that pressure.  This writing system guarantees your students will become better writers by the end of this process.
