Executive Skills and Writing Instruction

Developing Self-Regulated, Thinking Writers

Students learn to write well by developing fundamental literacy skills--and also by knowing how to get started, stay on track, and persist toward meaningful goals. From leading science-of-writing expert Leslie E. Laud, this is the first book that helps K-12 educators harness the power of executive skills in evidence-based writing instruction. Laud shows how self-regulation supports learning and growth in every step of the writing process, from planning to drafting, editing, and revising. The book provides a clear roadmap and practical strategies for teaching and scaffolding both writing skills and executive skills. It is packed with sample lessons, writing prompts, extended examples, “Take It to the Classroom” tips, and reproducible/downloadable tools.
