Your students freeze up when faced with a writing assignment? The step-by-step approach in Finish Line Writing for the Common Core State Standards, Second Edition provides the support students need and is developed specifically for the Common Core State Standards for Writing.

Reasoned writing
Types of writing include logical arguments and/or opinion writing, depending on grade level.

Concentration on research
Students build knowledge of the research process through instructional lessons and focused projects.

Writing-reading connection
Connections to the reading standards require students to support their analysis and research with evidence drawn from literary and informational texts.
