University of Maine assistant professor of special education Sara Flanagan and senior lecturer of education Tammy Mills wrote an article that was published in the Winter 2024 edition of Maine Educator<\/a>, a publication of the Maine Education Association. The article, \u201cWriting Strategies for All Students,\u201d details an explicit instruction (EI) approach to teaching writing to K-12 students. Flanagan and Mills wrote that EI \u201cprovides a systematic, structured approach to teach any topic by providing a model then practicing together, in pairs or groups, and independently.\u201d They add that it \u201cis particularly effective when introducing a new topic or one with multiple components, or when students may not understand the needed prerequisite skills.\u201d The article includes specific strategies that can be used with EI, such as reviewing background information, including writing-related vocabulary prior to instruction; using models or examples of finished writing samples and implementing technology supports that teachers can incorporate into their lessons. The print edition of the article includes a sample lesson plan sequence that teachers can use in their classrooms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
