Webinar: Read-Write-Reason

Learn how to implement NoRedInk’s newly launched Read-Write-Reason™ learning activities into your instruction.

Read-Write-Reason™ is an integrated reading and writing experience for grades 4-12 that makes student thinking visible by breaking down higher order skills into scaffolded, interactive practice.

What’s different about Read-Write-Reason™?

Engaging: Before they ever start writing, students actively engage in choice-based activities that develop their critical thinking and decision-making skills.
Efficient: In just 15-minutes, students can explore how to analyze topics that interest them, develop and refine their ideas, or use language effectively to make their points.
Immediate: Teachers get real-time snapshots of student thinking to inform small group instruction, spark debates, or hold writing conferences.

See how Read-Write-Reason™ can help your students unleash the writer within.
