Getting Started with Middle School Sentence Composing by Don Killgallon
Getting Started with Middle School Sentence Composing introduces the powerful Sentence-Composing approach at a perfect time — middle school — to deepen students’ skill in writing strong sentences. Using real sentences by authors as models, it provides practice with four tools that skilled writers use to add variety to their work: Openers to vary sentence beginnings Splits to vary sentence middles Closers to vary sentence endings Mixes to add details in two or three places. Along the way, Don and Jenny Killgallon provide support for students, including: Basic sentence structures – activities to understand subjects, predicates, and their roles in sentence building Broken sentences – exercises to identify, avoid, and repair fragments Vocabulary scaffolds – “quickshots” to include an immediate, clear definition in context for challenging words Samples Preview sample pages from Getting Started with Middle School Sentence ComposingJenny Killgallon is coauthor of Paragraphs for Middle School (2013), Paragraphs for High School (2012), Grammar for College Writing (2010), Story Grammar for Elementary School (2008), Grammar for High School (2007), Grammar for Middle School (2006), Sentence Composing for Elementary School (2000), and Daily Sentence Composing (Great Source).
