"Writing A-Z is a great investment. My students have become more confident in their writing, and they're engaged and having fun. Our favorite resource is Build-a-Book. My students love creating their own books!"
Anna O.
Classroom Teacher
"I love that Writing A-Z allows students to learn as they play. If a student struggles with an activity, it allows them to start over to learn it again (and earn more stars!). I love seeing the excitement in my students’ eyes from earning stars after a new skill is accomplished. I especially like the Author's Purpose activity and how Writing A-Z provides differentiated instruction for students who struggle with how material was presented in class."
Cynthia J
Classroom Teacher, Dallas ISD
"I purchased Writing A-Z because I needed help getting kids engaged in writing. My students are very engaged while using Writing A-Z and have become better writers. I especially love Grammar Quest; it’s a great tool for early finishers and my students love being able to create a book in the Playground section."
