You will need to click on TIA (Total Instructional Alignment) documents.

Combine this with any guidance from your state curriculum standards and focus on what matters most to successful writing experiences. In kindergarten, that might mean starting a simple sentence with capital letter and using a period. In third grade, that might mean the ability to write statements, questions and interjections that are correctly punctuated along with the ability to use internal punctuation in dialogue and list sentences plus the ability to use a variety of conjunctions and transitions in their writing. > > > > > > Lori Jackson M.Ed.Reading Specialist > > Broken Bow, NE > > > > > > > > > > > > > > EMAILING FOR THE GREATER GOOD > > Join me > > > >> Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2010 09:18:20 -0600 > >> From: jenki...@oakhillschool.org > >> To: mosaic@literacyworkshop.org > >> Subject: [MOSAIC] Off Topic - Grammar Curriculum > >> > >> Hello.
