 Helps students develop their basic
paragraph writing skills. Students learn how to write
an effective paragraph -- developed by reason, detail, sequence,
example, and cause and effect.
Choosing from a menu of topics, students are guided to
develop an idea, and to write their own topic sentence,
body, and conclusion. Steps include pre-writing, writing,
organizing, revising, rewriting, and publishing.
Teachers can monitor their students' progress in the
record management system.
Designed for students in grades 3 through 5 (ages
8 and up), the software can also be used by English language
learners and adult students.
"My students have achieved wonderful results with it."
