Overhead Writing Lessons: Strong Sentences (prepack) (Overhead Writing Lessons: Strong Sentenc)

The overheads that go along with this book are fantastic. The worksheets are a little young for my middle schoolers, but they are a helpful reinforcement.

This is an easy-to-use resource for teaching basic paragraph writing skills. Skills are taught step-by-step using graphic organizers and simple instructions. It covers topic sentences, developing a paragraph, transitions, expository paragraphs, narrative paragraphs, descriptive paragraphs, persuasive paragraphs, and editing. Including in the booklet are overheads that would be useful in a classroom setting. Visual learners will especially like this resource.

I only give it 4 stars because the price of $12.99 is a little expensive for homeschool parents since they would not use the overheads and much of this information is easily found elsewhere. For classroom teachers using overheads, the price is reasonable.
