Organizing Main Ideas & Details | Writing Skills Practice Workshop 8-10 ELA

Do your students need help with identifying and organizing their paragraph writing for expository and persuasive writing? Would you like an informal assessment tool to figure out how well your students can select, identify, and organize main ideas and supporting details? Use this writing skills practice activity designed for Middle and High School students.

What's Included:

• Set of Instructions on How to Use the Skills Practice in the Classroom
• 2 Writing Skills Practice Worksheets (with Activities)
• Answer Keys for student-facing documents
• Standards Alignment Chart for Planning
• Print and Digital Versions

I recommend using these resources in a Middle or High school English Language Arts classroom.
