The process of good preparation is extremely important in developing powerful writing skills; however, many teachers tend to skip this important step. Teachers often face the demands of a “product” and rarely take the necessary time to fully prepare their students with the vocabulary and structure they will be working with. Often, teachers in middle or high school expect students to have learned these basics in previous grades and are disappointed when students have not mastered these basic essay writing skills.

Whether your students have or have not been appropriately or adequately prepared previously, it is always good to have everyone on the same page, using the same common terms. In fact, if you choose to continue with Simply Novel's writing programs, it will be necessary for everyone to be working with the same terms and definitions. It is important that students become familiar with these terms, and that they feel confident with the basic “skeleton” of the essay in order to move beyond into the actual construction of the five-paragraph essay. NO PREP, no fluff, no cutesy fonts or juvenile images - perfect for helping middle and high school students learn the important elements of different types of essays!

Taking the time to prepare students fully will pay dividends in the end—guaranteed.
