Students can choose from a variety of "text types" such as persuasive, narrative, information report, response, or poetry. They are then provided with prompts and a text organizer to support them in their writing.
Why UDL?
Writing Fun is an excellent example of providing options that clarify syntax and structure. The prompts and text organizers highlight the different structures of different forms of writing.
This site allows teachers to create, save, and print rubrics for their classes. Models and prompts are available as well as online tutorials. Check out the option to make interactive rubrics!
Why UDL?
