This is great! Evidence based and well researched writing instruction is so important. Writing is often neglected but so important for literacy.
Here we go - today we launched thinkSRSD with our school staff, bringing research- and evidence-based writing instruction to our educators and students! 💪✍🏽🩷🌟
