Help your students master grammar, mechanics, usage, and syntax with simple strategies that build confidence, promote understanding, and motivate self-editing!

In this 15-hour course, teachers will read Everyday Editing by Jeff Anderson to explore classroom-tested, research-based instructional strategies. Together, everyone will discover better ways to address state standards and help all students become successful writers.
