WritingFix

The literacy facilitator at Midvalley Elementary is an incredible resource if you need help teaching writing. She recently showed me the site writingfix.com, created by the Northern Nevada Writing Project, that contains wonderful resources, ideas, and lesson plans for teaching 6 Trait Writing. We all know the Direct Writing Assessment is rapidly approaching for 5th grade, and every teacher at every level should be teaching the 6 Traits, so I thought this site would be particularly helpful. Check it out!

Be sure to pay attention to the following great content on the site:
