Customized District Resources

This past year we've been working with districts to align their new ELAR resources, the district's pacing/scope & sequence, with the writing instruction. In most cases, we've customized a specific district digital guide by grade level for teachers 2-8.

Whether your district is using a popular reading program or follows the district's own scope and sequence, we can align Empowering Writers' instruction to the required pacing and streamline the resources.

The alignment of reading and writing simplifies the implementation of ELA instruction and takes away the guesswork out of lesson movement.

Distance Learning Student Assignments

We’ve created, and in some cases redesigned, writing assignments to assign directly to students who may be in an “at home” learning environment. The Distance Learning Student Assignments are a wide-range of lessons and activities covering vocabulary building, narrative and expository writing, reading activities, editing & revising, and "off screen" activities for K-8. All lessons can be found within your HUB digital guide.

Distance Learning Student Assignments can be assigned to a wide range of school platforms (Google Classroom, Schoology, Office 365, Canvas, etc.)

"It's no surprise but the resources you are putting together are AMAZING! Thank you for all of your work as we try to wrap our heads around a digital learning platform. As always, the EW team has exceeded our expectations! Thanks again for all you continue to do to support teaching and learning."

~ Maureen F. | Director, Language Arts / Social Studies
