Evidence-Based Writing, Grade 4

This workbook delivers a comprehensive toolkit for fourth-grade writing development, providing 64 pages of structured prompts and practice aligned with Common Core standards. It systematically teaches opinion/argumentative, informative, and narrative writing through paired prompts and graphic organizers that guide students through planning, research, and prewriting. The inclusion of a writing rubric, student checklist, and five-page writing process packet creates a complete framework for building essential writing skills. This methodical approach ensures students develop the foundational abilities needed for academic success.

What sets this resource apart is its emphasis on the writing process rather than just the final product, making it particularly valuable for students who struggle with organizing their thoughts. The graphic organizers serve as thinking tools that help young writers structure arguments, present information logically, and develop narrative flow. Teachers will appreciate the clear standards alignment and practical assessment tools, while parents can use the structured prompts to support writing development at home. This workbook effectively bridges the gap between basic writing exercises and the sophisticated, evidence-based composition skills required in upper elementary grades.
